Quotes 5.24.10

So i realized our 'quotes of the day' are no longer quotes of the day... so this will just be quotes when we feel like it! :D
These quotes are brought to you by Sarah Dessen, enjoy. : )

1) "Love is needing someone. Love is putting up with someone's bad qualities because they somehow complete you."
(Sarah Dessen, This Lullaby)

2) "No relationship is perfect, ever. There are always some ways you have to bend, to compromise, to give something up in order to gain something greater...The love we have for each other is bigger than these small differences. And that's the key. It's like a big pie chart, and the love in a relationship has to be the biggest piece. Love can make up for a lot." (Sarah Dessen, This Lullaby)

3) "It's just that...I just think that some things are meant to be broken. Imperfect. Chaotic. It's the universe's way of providing contrast, you know? There have to be a few holes in the road. It's how life is."
(Sarah Dessen, The Truth About Forever)

4) "It was like when you're a little kid and you run into your teacher or librarian at the grocery store or Wal-mart and it's just so startling, because it never occurred to you they existed outside of school." (Sarah Dessen, Just Listen)

5) "I don't believe in failure, because simply by saying you've failed, you've admitted you attempted. And anyone who attempts is not a failure. Those who truly fail in my eyes are the ones who never try at all. The ones who sit on the couch and whine and moan and wait for the world to change for them."
(Sarah Dessen, Keeping the Moon)

6) "Pieces and parts were always easier to process. The full picture, the entire story, was another thing entirely. But you just never knew. Sometimes, people could surprise you." (Sarah Dessen, Just Listen)
"Hate Spinnerbait!" (This one is for Jennifer O. :))
(Sarah Dessen, This Lullaby)
