Daisy Jones & The Six

by Taylor Jenkins Reid

Knowing you did the right thing doesn’t mean you’re happy about it.

All I will say is that you show up for your friends on their hardest days. And you hold their hand through the roughest parts. Life is about who is holding your hand and, I think, whose hand you commit to holding.

People say it’s hard to be away from the people you love but it was so hard to be right next to him.

I fell in love with the wrong guy who was exactly the right guy.

We hurt each other very badly. And that is my biggest regret. That is my very biggest regret. Because I loved her with all of my fucking soul. To this day, there is a piece of me that still loves her. And there is a piece of me that will never forgive her.

“I wish Billy didn’t love anyone else. But do you know what I decided a long time ago? I decided I don’t need perfect love and I don’t need a perfect husband and I don’t need perfect kids and a perfect life and all that. I want mine. I want my love, my husband, my kids, my life.

“Don’t count yourself out this early, Daisy. You’re all sorts of things you don’t even know yet.” That really stuck with me. That who I was wasn’t entirely already determined. That there was still hope for me.

Your life isn’t about me, honey, my life is about you.

We were pretty good. Daisy: We were great. We were really great.

I believe you can break me But I’m saved for the one who saved me We only look like young stars Because you can’t see old scars
