“Can I punch him in the face? Just once.”

“You’ve been away too long.”

“We love any excuse to throw a soiree.”

“Never could get anything past you, could I?”

“You know, I thought I would like that more than I did.”

“Is it just me or are people, like, staring at me?”

“This is for you, asshole.”

“You don’t have to keep _____ happy. She’s just lucky to be here.”

“No one loves free stuff more than rich people.”

“You know, if it wasn’t for _____, I’d ask you to marry me.”

“_____, I’ve known you since you were in nappies. Something’s on your mind.”

“I’m not gonna make a scene. I’m not gonna give them the satisfaction.”

“Why would _____ even have friends like that? So mean.”

“I thought I was here to meet your family, go to your best friend’s wedding, eat some good food. Instead, I feel like I’m a villain in some soap opera who’s plotting to steal your family fortune.”

“You have every reason to be upset.”

“You will never be enough.”

“She looked at me like I was nothing.”

“I feel like I shouldn’t even go to the wedding.”

“And I would throw in a Korean snail face mask. Sweetie, your skin is so dry, it’s hurting my face.”

“You look like a flower. A sad, lonely flower no one wants to be around.”

“You kind of look like a slutty ebola virus.”

“I know you’re having an affair.”

“You’d rather I scream and carry on?”

“Don’t try and turn this on me. I’m not the one who screwed up!”

“I’m tired of it. I’m tired of having nothing I do matter.”

“Family never says thank you.”

“I don’t want any part in your family.”

“Don’t chase after her and degrade yourself. I forbid it.”

“If you go with her, you can’t come back!”

“_____. Come to breakfast. You need to eat. Or use the bathroom, or maybe a shower. It’s there if you need it.”

“I mean, did you ever think about… trying to talk to him? Do you still think about him?”

“Everything that happened in my past life is the reason I got you.”

“I really thought he was the one.”

“You know it’s not just my fault that things didn’t work out.”

“You’re right. I shouldn’t have kept things from you.”

“But I just realized, it’s not my job to make you feel like a man. I can’t make you something you’re not.”

“You have no one, no net worth, but you have integrity. That’s why I respect you.”

“God, don’t make this harder than it already is.”

“I always imagined what me proposing to you would be like. You know what? I had it all planned out.”

“I know this is a far throw from any hidden paradise. But wherever you are in the world, that’s where I belong.”

‘  the  assholes  are  always  puzzled  when  the  order  of  the  universe  is  restored ,  when  they  are  held  accountable  for  their  cowardly ,  pretentious ,  loveless  ways .  ’

‘  some  guys  are  assholes  and  you  have  to  accept  that .  ’

‘  the  problem  with  books  is  that  they  end .  ’

‘  the  only  thing  crueler  than  a  cage  so  small  that  a  bird  can’t  fly  is  a  cage  so  large  that  a  bird  thinks  it  can  fly .  ’

‘  you  are  a  woman  and  i  am  a  man  and  we  belong  in  the  dark  together .  ’

‘  talking  to  you  is  like  traveling  through  time .  ’

‘  my  middle  school  health  teacher  told  us  you  can  only  hold  eye  contact  for  ten  seconds  before  scaring  or  seducing  someone .  ’

‘  eye  contact  is  what  keeps  us  civilized .  ’

‘  love’s  a  marathon ,  not  a  sprint .  ’

‘  well ,  sometimes  you  just  want  to  go  where  it’s  dark ,  you  know ?  ’

‘  some  people ,  it’s  like  they  care  more  about  their  status  updates  than  their  actual  lives .  ’

‘  some  people  on  this  earth  receive  love ,  get  married ,  and  honeymoon  in  cabo .  others  do  not .  some  people  read  alone  on  the  sofa  and  some  people  read  together ,  in  bed .  that’s  life .  ’

‘  don’t  make  a  baby  if  you’re  not  capable  of  unconditional  love .  ’

‘  when  i’m  nervous ,  i  get  nasty .  it’s  a  problem .  ’

‘  that’s  because  every  day  is  the  only  day .  ’

‘  she’s  dead  inside ,  like  a  corpse .  she  instagrams  methodically ,  clinically ,  as  if  she’s  gathering  evidence  for  defense ,  like  her  entire  life  is  dedicated  to  proving  that  she  has a  life .  ’

‘  we’re  too  old  to  be  young .  ’

‘  full  of  disclaimers ,  you’re  like  a  warning  label  on  a  pack  of  cigarettes .  ’

‘  if  you  knew  what  i  went  through  to  get  into  your  home ,  that  i  messed  up  my  back  trying  to  know  you ,  inside  and  out ,  you’d  judge  me  for  it .  ’

‘  when  a  girl  likes  talking  about  you  more  than  talking  to  you ,  well ,  in  my  experience ,  that’s  the  end .  ’

‘  you  grow  through  love .  you  don’t  postpone  love  until  you  stop  growing .  ’

‘  he’s  been  to  rehab ,  which  is  a  travesty  ;  you  can  tell  by  his  smug  face  that  he’s  not  capable  of  genuine  addiction .  ’

‘  there’s  emptiness  in  him  that  can  never  be  filled ,  emptiness  that  dressed  up  well  at  prep  school ,  where  a  lack  of  willpower  is  called  creativity .  ’

‘  what  a  shame  to  be  so  angered  by  what  you  don’t  have  that  you  treat  what  you  do  have  like  it’s  nothing .  ’

‘  i  think  that  all  children  do  better  with  happy  parents  than  married  parents .  ’

‘  brunch ,  a  meal  invented  by  rich  white  chicks  to  rationalize  day  drinking  and  bingeing  on  french  toast .  ’

‘  you  are  a  monster ,  deathly ,  solipsistic  to  the  bone  and  you’re  blasphemous  because  all  you  want  is  you .  ’

‘  is  your  twitter  bio  your  subtle  way  of  announcing  that  you’re  an  attention  whore  who  has  no  standards  and  will  give  an  audience  to  any  poor  schmuck  who  says  hello ?  ’

‘  you  miss  me .  and  i  miss  you .  ’

‘  i  cry  and  watch  pitch  perfect  and  sing  along  with  the  barden  bellas .  i  don’t  want  to  be  a person  who  knows  the  name  of  a  fictional  a  cappella  group  in  a  chick  flick  but  that’s  what  love  has  done  to  me .  ’

‘  it’s  amazing  how  good  50  and  sunny  feels  after  you’ve  been  bleeding  in  12  with a  windchill  of  go  fuck  yourself .  ’

‘  you  want  to  know  what  i  know  and  hear  what  i  like  to  hear .  ’

‘  you  relax  your  arms  and  lower  your  legs  and  when  animals  open  up  like  that ,  they  want  to  fuck .  ’

‘  i’ll  fucking  kill  hugh  grant .  ’

‘  life  isn’t  always  ideal ,  not  for  most  people .  ’

‘  what  makes  us  become  us ?  what  fucks  us  up  and  why ?  ’

‘  i  want  life  to  move  slowly  because  i  want  to  anticipate  you  with  all  my  heart ,  greet  you  with  all  my  heart ,  fuck  you  with  all  my  heart ,  and  miss  you  with  all  my  heart .  ’

‘  i  have  to  laugh  because  i  sound  like  a  greeting  card  but  i  deserve  this ,  you ,  joy .  ’

‘  i  hope  you’ll  ask  me  to  eat  you  out  in  the  bathroom  at  starbucks .  ’

‘  he  cheats  on  you .  a  lot .  compulsively .  ’

‘  it  means  you  covet  me .  maybe  even  more  than  i  realize  since  right  now  your  hand  is  heading  to  your  cunt  yet  again .  ’

‘  you’re  so  clean  that  you’re  dirty .  ’

‘  they’re  in  their  own  world ,  where  good  things  happen ,  a  quarter  mile  and  a  million  light  years  away .  ’

‘  night  moves  don’t  work  in  the  morning .  ’

‘  you  don’t  want  to  be  spanked .  you  want  love .  ’

‘  dear  girl ,  you’re  not  an  island .  be  populated .  be  welcoming  to  love .  ’
