Pandemonium (Delirium, #2)

by Lauren Oliver

That is what hatred is. It will feed you and at the same time turn you to rot.

I didn’t realize then what a privilege that was: to be bored with your best friend; to have time to waste.

The flip side of freedom is this: When you’re completely free, you’re also completely on your own.

It occurs to me, then, that people themselves are full of tunnels: winding, dark spaces and caverns; impossible to know all the places inside of them. Impossible even to imagine.

We can never understand. We can only try, fumbling our way through the tunneled places, reaching for light.

Anger is useful only to a certain point. After that, it becomes rage, and rage will make you careless.
