Chris Cleave
“If I could not smile, I think my situation would be even more serious.”
Chris Cleave, Little Bee

Eloisa James
“I never did learn how to live in the moment, but I did learn that moments could be wasted and the world would continue to spin on its axis.”
Eloisa James, Paris in Love

Suzanne Collins
“You love me. Real or not real?"
I tell him, "Real.”
Suzanne Collins, Mockingjay

Jhumpa Lahiri
“Pack a pillow and blanket and see as much of the world as you can.You will not regret it.”
Jhumpa Lahiri, The Namesake

David Nicholls
“Live each day as if it's your last', that was the conventional advice, but really, who had the energy for that? What if it rained or you felt a bit glandy? It just wasn't practical. Better by far to simply try and be good and courageous and bold and to make a difference. Not change the world exactly, but the bit around you. Go out there with your passion and your electric typewriter and work hard at...something. Change lives through art maybe. Cherish your friends, stay true to your principles, live passionately and fully and well. Experience new things. Love and be loved, if you ever get the chance.”
David Nicholls, One Day
