“If you think you’re doing some charity work with meâ€� something altruistic by taking pity on poor little Lanie, get over it now, mister—â€�

Her fork flew right out of her hand, past Kyle’s shoulder. She sat there for a second staring disbelievingly at her empty hand. Then she narrowed her eyes at Kyle and snatched the fork out of his hand and used it.
-“That’s my fork, Lanie.�
-“Fork you, Kyle,”
― M.K. Schiller, The Do-Over

“(Divorce)
We’ll remarry someday when we’ve grown,
Like royalty who’ve earned the throne.
An aisle made of gold,
To have and to hold.
My dress made of rags,
A suit that’s so torn.
All eyes are on me,
But mine only on you.
You give your hand,
A king to his queen,
But know this darling,
Mulligans aren’t for the weak.
By changing the rules,
We’re changing the war,
The wounds that we’ve known,
Battle stains on the floor.
But from this day on,
The same as before,
You are the apple,
My eyes still adore.
Worth more than one shot,
Though we’ll face the worst a lot,
Better days will come,
If we stay and don’t run.
And if a wave takes us out,
I know we’ll figure it out.
And if the current takes us in,
I know we’ll do it all again.”
― Crystal Woods, Write like no one is reading

“There were so many places in my time with Rogerson that I wished I could go back to, hitting the stop button at just one moment to stop everything that came after. I had so many If Onlys, but each place I thought to stop meant missing something that came later. I needed it all, in the end, to make my own story find its finish.”
― Sarah Dessen, Dreamland

“I wanted to scream. When I'm with you, I feel I can take what others call my life and turns its face away from the wall. My entire life faces the wall except when I'm with you. I stare at my life and want to undo every mistake, every deceit, turn a new leaf, turn the table, turn the clock. I want to put a real face on my life, not the drab front I've been wearing since forever. So why can't I speak to you now?”
― André Aciman, Enigma Variations

“The whole point to New Years is not just to have a new year. But that we should be new, better and different people. That is why we exercise to RE-NEW our bodies.

“I wish we could start over. I wish we were meeting for the first time. Clean slate.â€�

Haley considers this. It’s such a little-kid term. ‘Do-over!â€� they’d shriek on the four-square court. The kickball field. Back when there was no mistake you couldn’t fix, no hurt you couldn’t heal with Band-Aids, hugs, and snacks. She’d love a do-over as well.”
― Maria Padian, Wrecked
