More quotes by Lauren Oliver, Delirium

"Now I'd rather be infected with love for the tiniest sliver of a second than live a hundred years smothered by a lie."
"Find the things that matter, and hold on to them, and fight for them, and refuse to let them go."
"And now I know why they invented words for love, why they had to: It's the only thing that can come close to describing what I feel in that moment, the baffling mixture of pain and pleasure and fear and joy, all running sharply through me at once."
"Love: It will kill you and save you, both"
"Are you sure that being like everybody else will make you happy?""I don't know any other way.""Let me show you."And then we're kissing. Or at least, I think we're kissing—I've only seen it done a couple of times, quick closed-mouth pecks at weddings or on formal occasions. But this isn't like anything I've ever seen, or imagined, or even dreamed: this is like music or dancing but better than both."
