“Tomorrow will be better.”
― Lauren Conrad, L.A. Candy

“You鈥檙e implying that I鈥檓 not presentable in public unless I have a full face of makeup on.鈥�
鈥淣o. I absolutely did not imply that.鈥�
鈥淚 suppose I should take three hours to curl my hair, too, right?鈥� I make my voice tremble. I am the victim of horrendous misdeeds. 鈥淏ecause I鈥檓 not pretty enough the way I am? I suppose you鈥檙e embarrassed to bring me around your family unless I conform to society鈥檚 impossible beauty standards for females?鈥�
His eyes narrow. 鈥淵ou鈥檙e right. Your hair鈥檚 an embarrassment in its natural state and your face is so anti鈥揻emale beauty that if you go out like that, I鈥檇 insist on you walking backward and ten feet away from me. I want you to go upstairs right now and paint yourself unrecognizable.鈥� He arches his eyebrows. 鈥淒id I do that right? Are those the words you鈥檇 like to put in my mouth?鈥�
My chin drops. He lowers his gaze to a newspaper and flicks the page. He did it for dramatic effect. I know he didn鈥檛 get a chance to finish reading the article he was on.
鈥淎ctually, I鈥檇 like to put an apple in your mouth and roast you on a spit,鈥� I say.
鈥淕o ahead and wear pajamas to dinner, Naomi. You think that would bother me? You can go out dressed as Santa Claus and I wouldn鈥檛 care.鈥�
Now I genuinely am insulted. 鈥淲hy wouldn鈥檛 you care?鈥�
He raises his eyes to mine. 鈥淏ecause I think you鈥檙e beautiful no matter what.鈥�
Ugh. That鈥檚 really low, even for him.”
― Sarah Hogle, You Deserve Each Other

“Well,鈥� Naomi said cheerfully, 鈥渨hat鈥檚 the worst that can happen?鈥� They were silent, considering that, because there were just so many possibilities. But in the end, it was a better idea than Facebook.”
― Rachel Caine, Last Breath

“Since i couldn't remember the "real" first time i'd lost my virginity, this would have become my de facto first time. I wanted a better story then: I did it with this boy who i wasn't very into and who had mysterious Gaterade breath; in his room decorated with sports equipment; at least he was nice enough to provide condoms and get his ancient, horny dog to leave us along.”
― Gabrielle Zevin, Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac

“This is where life happens, in the stuff that's left behind.”
― Cara Delevingne, Mirror Mirror

“I would have always been the captain. But now you're in charge.”
― David Levithan, Naomi and Ely's No Kiss List

“Regardless of our assessment of Elimelech, Naomi lost her husband. On the Holmes and Rahe Stress Scale, loss of a spouse is the worst event on the human suffering scale. Combine that with a widow鈥檚 already declining health and diminishing senses, Naomi鈥檚 state of mind must have been a personal cataclysm.

“To be fair, the pleasure of home and memories had been ripped from Naomi. Not all at once. There is a problem with widowhood: the survivor has no one to remember with. Their co-rememberer can no longer remind them of what they shared. Our dead take our memories with them.

― Michael Ben Zehabe, Ruth: A Woman's Guide to Husband Material

“Maybe her silence was another way to express scorn. There is a saying: empty vessels make the loudest sounds. Maybe that was the principal behind Naomi鈥檚 silence. Maybe she was emptied, spent, angry.

― Michael Ben Zehabe, Ruth: A Woman's Guide to Husband Material

“Consider Ruth鈥檚 evening walk from the barley fields to town. That difficult walk home must have reminded her how alone she was; not because she was new in Bethlehem, but because she was tired, carrying a heavy bag of grain, with no husband to help her.

“Hi Lady, Hi Woman.., all that Naomi had, all that Mary had, all that Esther had, all that Elizabeth had, YOU ALSO HAVE... Go, make your dreams come true!”

“Picture the arrow; nothing but the arrow.”

“Naomi giggled that same giggle with which Enoch had become infatuated.”

“Lana was with me,鈥� I rushed. 鈥淚 mean鈥� I went with her. She had to go because her parents were there and鈥斺€�

I was rambling and I knew it. Yet it was the blank expression on Lachlan鈥檚 face that made me stop talking. His eyebrows were pinched together. Eyes scrunched as if he was trying to peer very carefully at me.

鈥淲hat are you talking about?鈥� he asked in a low voice.

I stared at him miserably; it was all I could do.

鈥淚t鈥檚 me鈥︹€� He pushed away part of his jacket and gripped the material of his shirt. 鈥淟achlan.”
― Calia Read, Unravel

“Is that why you slept with me? Because you felt sorry for me?鈥�

鈥淲hat?鈥� Her mouth falls open. 鈥淣o, you colossal idiot. I鈥檓 not running a fucking charity out of my pussy. I slept with you because I wanted to.”
― Lee Savino and Lili Zander

“He's a bastard.'

My shoulders shook with laughter. 'I'm pretty sure all of those who are in power are bastards.”

“I like what I am.' Her gaze briefly met mine. 'I wish you could like what you are.”
