    “when your little girl
    asks you if she’s pretty
    your heart will drop like a wineglass
    on the hardwood floor
    part of you will want to say
    of course you are, don’t ever question it
    and the other part
    the part that is clawing at
    you
    will want to grab her by her shoulders
    look straight into the wells of
    her eyes until they echo back to you
    and say
    you do not have to be if you don’t want to
    it is not your job
    both will feel right
    one will feel better
    she will only understand the first
    when she wants to cut her hair off
    or wear her brother’s clothes
    you will feel the words in your
    mouth like marbles
    you do not have to be pretty if you don’t want to
    it is not your job”
    Caitlyn Siehl

    “Do not fall in love with people like me.
    I will take you to museums, and parks, and monuments, and kiss you in every beautiful place, so that you can never go back to them without tasting me like blood in your mouth.
    I will destroy you in the most beautiful way possible. And when I leave you will finally understand, why storms are named after people.”
    Caitlyn Siehl, Literary Sexts: A Collection of Short & Sexy Love Poems

    Jandy Nelson
    “Meeting your soul mate is like walking into a house you've been in before - you will recognize the furniture, the pictures on the wall, the books on the shelves, the contents of drawers: You could find your way around in the dark if you had to.”
    Jandy Nelson, I'll Give You the Sun

    “I watched a girl in a sundress kiss another girl on a park bench, and just as the sunlight spilled perfectly onto both of their hair, I thought to myself: ‘How bravely beautiful it is, that sometimes, the sea wants the city, even when it has been told its entire life it was meant for the shore.”
    Christopher Poindexter

    Kait Rokowski

    “Despite what you’ve read, your sadness is not beautiful. No one will see you in the bookstore, curled up with your Bukowski, and want to save you.
    Stop waiting for a salvation that will not come from the grey-eyed boy looking for an annotated copy of Shakespeare,
    for an end to your sadness in Keats.
    He coughed up his lungs at 25, and flowery words cannot conceal a life barely lived.
    Your life is fragile, just beginning, teetering on the violent edge of the world.
    Your sadness will bury you alive, and you are the only one who can shovel your way out with hardened hands and ragged fingernails, bleeding your despair into the unforgiving earth.
    Darling, you see, no heroes are coming for you. Grab your sword, and don your own armor.”
    Emily Palermo

    “So, kid, you’ve got to live,
    and not just that stoic existence you’ve
    been stomping trough all this time.
    You’ve got to be kind,
    you’ve got to fall in love,
    fall out of love,
    no matter how much it hurts
    because my god,
    it’s worth it.
    Don’t let the world turn you to stone;
    you’ve got to feel.
    And sometimes,
    your heart will threaten
    to march right out of your chest
    because you’re so fucking full of it all-
    of the people,
    the places,
    the endless days,
    the eternal nights-
    and kid, that’s fine.
    Be brave.
    Courage isn’t measured by the
    number of people you’ve turned away
    or by the counts of the nights you’ve
    spent alone because you refuse to
    give someone the chance to love you.
    Being alone is not poetic;
    you’ve got to let them in.
    Let them peel back your skin
    and waltz into your bloodstream
    and love them,
    love them,
    love them.

    And finally, kid,
    your life has already begun.
    Stop waiting.
    Chaos is already underway.”
    Emily Palermo

    William W. Purkey
    “You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching,
    Love like you'll never be hurt,
    Sing like there's nobody listening,
    And live like it's heaven on earth.”
    William W. Purkey

    Albert Einstein
    “Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”

    “If you want to know what a man's like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.”
    J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

  • #25
    J.R.R. Tolkien
    “All that is gold does not glitter,
    Not all those who wander are lost;
    The old that is strong does not wither,
    Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

    From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
    A light from the shadows shall spring;
    Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
    The crownless again shall be king.”
    J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

    William Shakespeare
    “Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind; And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind. Nor hath love's mind of any judgment taste; Wings and no eyes figure unheedy haste: And therefore is love said to be a child, Because in choice he is so oft beguil'd.”
    William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night’s Dream

  • #30
    Cassandra Clare
    “Have you fallen in love with the wrong person yet?'
    Jace said, "Unfortunately, Lady of the Haven, my one true love remains myself."
    ..."At least," she said, "you don't have to worry about rejection, Jace Wayland."
    "Not necessarily. I turn myself down occasionally, just to keep it interesting.”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Bones
