    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

    Deb Caletti
    “It starts so young, and I'm angry about that. The garbage we're taught. About love, about what's "romantic." Look at so many of the so-called romantic figures in books and movies. Do we ever stop and think how many of them would cause serious and drastic unhappiness after The End? Why are sick and dangerous personality types so often shown a passionate and tragic and something to be longed for when those are the very ones you should run for your life from? Think about it. Heathcliff. Romeo. Don Juan. Jay Gatsby. Rochester. Mr. Darcy. From the rigid control freak in The Sound of Music to all the bad boys some woman goes running to the airport to catch in the last minute of every romantic comedy. She should let him leave. Your time is so valuable, and look at these guys--depressive and moody and violent and immature and self-centered. And what about the big daddy of them all, Prince Charming? What was his secret life? We dont know anything about him, other then he looks good and comes to the rescue.”
    Deb Caletti, The Secret Life of Prince Charming

    Rupi Kaur
    “Every time you
    tell your daughter
    you yell at her
    out of love
    you teach her to confuse
    anger with kindness
    which seems like a good idea
    till she grows up to
    trust men who hurt her
    cause they look so much
    like you.”
    Rupi Kaur

    Rupi Kaur
    “most importantly love
    like it's the only thing you know how
    at the end of the day all this
    means nothing
    this page
    where you're sitting
    your degree
    your job
    the money
    nothing even matters
    except love and human connection
    who you loved
    and how deeply you loved them
    how you touched the people around you
    and how much you gave them”
    Rupi Kaur, Milk and honey

    “Kiss her. Slowly, take your time, there’s no place you’d rather be. Kiss her but not like you’re waiting for something else, like your hands beneath her shirt or her skirt or tangled up in her bra straps. Nothing like that. Kiss her like you’ve forgotten any other mouth that your mouth has ever touched. Kiss her with a curious childish delight. Laugh into her mouth, inhale her sighs. Kiss her until she moans. Kiss her with her face in your hands. Or your hands in her hair. Or pulling her closer at the waist. Kiss her like you want to take her dancing. Like you want to spin her into an open arena and watch her look at you like you’re the brightest thing she’s ever seen. Kiss her like she’s the brightest thing you’ve ever seen. Take your time. Kiss her like the first and only piece of chocolate you’re ever going to taste. Kiss her until she forgets how to count. Kiss her stupid. Kiss her silent. Come away, ask her what 2+2 is and listen to her say your name in answer.”
    Azra Tabassum

    Zelda Fitzgerald
    “All these soft, warm nights going to waste when I ought to be lying in your arms under the moon - the dearest arms in all the world - darling arms that I love to feel around me - How much longer - before they’ll be there to stay? When I do get home again, you’ll certainly have a most awful time ever moving me one inch from you.”
    Zelda Fitzgerald, Dear Scott, Dearest Zelda: The Love Letters of F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald

    Julia Quinn
    “And when he kissed her . . .
    All she wanted was more.
    “You are so beautiful,” he murmured, and for the first time in her life, Sarah truly believed that she was.

    Hugh smiled down at her, a silly half grin that told her he did not believe her for one second.”
    Julia Quinn, The Sum of All Kisses
