They will say pretty things then
leave you with scars.

For that is where the true gentlemen are.”

“Lets face it, you did steal me. But you saved my life too. And somewhere in the middle, you showed me a place so different and beautiful, I can never get it out of my mind. And I can't get you out of there either. You're stuck in my brain like my own blood vessels.”

“I hate it, all of this," I screamed, my voice breaking. "I even hate him, even him." A huge sob came up from my chest.
And I did, right then. I hated you for everything; for making me feel so helpless everywhere I went, for making me lose control. I hated you for all the emotions in my head, for the confusion... for the way I was suddenly doubting everything. I hated you for turning my life upside down and then smashing it into shards. I hated you for making me stand with a whirring fan in my hand, screaming at my mum.
But I hated you for something else, too. Right then, and at every moment since you'd left me, all I could think about was you. I wanted you in that apartment. I wanted your arms around me, your face close to mine. I wanted your smell. And I knew I couldn't-shouldn't-have it. That's what I hated most. The uncertainty of you. You'd kidnapped me, put my life in danger... but I loved you, too. Or thought I did. None of it made sense.”
― Lucy Christopher, Stolen

“You told me once of the plants that lie dormant through the drought, that wait, half-dead, deep in the earth. The plants that wait for the rain. You said they'd wait for years, if they had to; that they'd almost kill themselves before they grew again. But as soon as those first drops of water fall, those plants begin to stretch and spread their roots. They travel up through the soil and sand to reach the surface. There's a chance for them again.”
― Lucy Christopher, Stolen

“Me he empeñado en que Emiliano me valide el pasado y ¿para qué? El pasado se valida solo, sucediéndonos todo el tiempo. No hay que huir de él ni regocijarse en extrañar lo que nos fue quitando. Pase lo que pase, todo pasa al mismo tiempo.”
― Catalina Aguilar Mastretta, Todos los días son nuestros

“Hoy me veo y no sé que de mí es mío y qué es de él”
― Catalina Aguilar Mastretta, Todos los días son nuestros

“Qué pregunta, ¿conoces a Emiliano? Al que dejó de contestarme el teléfono y escribe poesía urbana en su tuiter, no, a ése no lo conozco. Al que va por toda la colonia Condesa de la mano de la rubita que sale en su película, a ese tampoco. Pero sí lo conozco, como si nunca se hubiera ido, porque me quiso tanto y fuimos tan del otro como ahora somos del espacio en el que nos olvidamos.”
― Catalina Aguilar Mastretta, Todos los días son nuestros
