Citations
“When I pictured myself, it was always like just an outline in a coloring book, with the inside not yet completed. All the standard features were there. but the colors, the zigzags and plaids, the bits and pieces that made up me, Halley, weren’t yet in place.”
Someone Like YouEn anglais “You can’t just turn your heart off like a faucet; you have to go to the source and dry it out, drop by drop.”
Someone Like YouEn anglais “It’s funny how someone’s perception of you can be formed without you even knowing it.”
DreamlandEn anglais “I felt like I’d been swimming so hard, and the water growing warmer and warmer the closer I got to the top. I wasn’t there yet, but now I could see the surface, rippling just beyond my fingers.”
DreamlandEn anglais “Like a blinking cursor on an empty page, it was just the first thing. The beginning of the beginning. But at least it was done.”
What Happened To GoodbyeEn anglais
