Ann Brashares quotes about
circles light understanding
The bottom had arrived. She crashed against it, but it brought no sense of closure or understanding. She just lay there at the bottom looking up. She knew there must be a very tiny circle of light up there somewhere, but just now she couldn’t see it.
relief sometimes invisible
Sometimes it is a relief to be invisible
sorry im-sorry
I’m sorry you asked me out, otherwise maybe I could have liked you.
rooms size fit
Women always seemed to bring the size they wished they were to the fitting room, rather than the size that would actually fit.
love running can-do
Love who you love while you have them. That's all you can do. Let them go when you must. If you know how to love, you'll never run out.
giving-up giving
How many times could you give up on someone you loved?
practice two needs
It was funny how the old practices always came around again. It was the rhythm of human enterprise to invent and worship some new approach, to fully reject it a generation later, to realize the need for it again a generation or two after that and then hastily reinvent it as new, usually without its original elegance. Scientists hated to look backward for anything.
remember someday shows
I killed her once and died for her many times and I still have nothing to show for it. I always search for her ; I always remember her. I carry the hope that someday she will remember me.
dirt cold forget
Forget Jack, I'm in love with the cold, dirt floor.
missing world enough
It’s more that I’m afraid of time. And not having enough of it. Time to figure out who I’m supposed to be… to find my place in the world before I have to leave it. I’m afraid of what I’ll miss.
love blood water
Blood may be thicker than water, but friendship is thicker than both.
things-in-life imagine happened
She was astonished, and at the same time she knew. There were many things in life like that. You couldn’t imagine it, and then it happened and you couldn’t really imagine it hadn’t.
worth-it
It was wrong. But it was worth it.
firsts remember my-sister
I told him, though, that he better be good to you. When you came along, I said I'd share you, but I told him to remember that you're my sister. I loved you first. (Riley to her sister Alice about Paul)
