Sam Rivers Quotes

“My life was fine. My job was fine. My house was fine. My friends were fine. God, I was sick of fucking fine. I needed something--anything--to be great.”
― Aly Martinez, The Fall Up

“Whether it was on the bridge or in a hospital room not even two hours ago, your tears have always told me the truth.” I dropped my damp thumb to her lips. “These are not as honest. Don’t tell me you’re fine. Don’t tell me you have to go. Don’t tell me that everything is okay. Just tell me the truth your eyes are so desperate for me to hear.”
― Aly Martinez, The Fall Up
