I'd rather die on my own terms than live on theirs. I'd rath... - Lauren Oliver, Delirium
"I'd rather die on my own terms than live on theirs. I'd rather die loving Alex than live without him."
"I'd rather die on my own terms than live on theirs. I'd rather die loving Alex than live without him."
"He is my world and my world is him and without him there is no world."
"It's so strange how life works: You want something and you wait and wait and feel like it's taking forever to come. Then it happens and it's over and all you want to do is curl back up in that moment before things changed."
"I guess that’s just part of loving people: You have to give things up. Sometimes you even have to give them up."
"This is what I want. This is the only thing I've ever wanted. Everything else—every single second of every single day that has come before this very moment, this kiss—has meant nothing."
"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."
