"Love: a single word, a wispy thing, a word no bigger or longer than an edge. That's what it is: an edge; a razor. It draws up through the center of your life, cutting everything in two. Before and after. The rest of the world falls away on either side."
"Love: It will kill you and save you, both"
"I know that the whole point—the only point—is tofind the things that matter, and hold on to them, and fight for them, and refuse tolet them go."
"Unhappiness is bondage; therefore, happiness is freedom."
"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."
"I'd rather die on my own terms than live on theirs. I'd rather die loving Alex than live without him."
