Text Quotes
I can say I made a lot of mistakes, but I don’t regret things. Because at least I didn’t spend a life standing outside, wondering what living would be like.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) He’s getting dumped. And he doesn’t even know it yet. He’s probably eating a cheeseburger or flossing or picking up his dry cleaning, and he has no idea. No inkling.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) It seemed like this day could go in so many directions, like a spiderweb shooting out toward endless possibilities.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) I’m just writing what I know. I’ve never been much of a reader of fantasy, and I think you write what you, personally, enjoy reading.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) If something doesn’t work exactly right, or maybe needs some special treatment, you don’t just throw it away. Everything can’t be fully operational all the time. Sometimes, we need to have the patience to give something the little nudge it needs.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) I used to worry I was entirely uninteresting, but the truth is I think if my life was more exciting I’d never have any time to write.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) Look, the point is there’s no way to be a hundred percent sure about anyone or anything. So you’re left with a choice. Either hope for the best or just expect the worst.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) All I’d wanted for so long was for someone to explain everything that had happened to me in this same way. To label it neatly on a page: this leads to this leads to this.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) So maybe it wasn’t the fairy tale. But those stories weren’t real anyway. Mine were.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) I think I’m too lazy a writer to do something like historical fiction. You have to do so much research. I just write what I know.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) I’m famously secretive about my work. Nobody reads my books till they’re finished.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) Love is so unpredictable. Sometimes you’ll know a man for years and then one day, boom! Suddenly you see him in a different way. And other times, it’s that first date, that first moment. That’s what makes it so great.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) Maybe other writers have perfect first drafts, but I am not one of them. I always try to get the book as tight as I can, but you reach a point as the author where you have lost all perspective.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) I’ve always written in first person. It gives the readers more insight.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) When I was a teen, I was never really into the captain of the football team or the student body president. The guys I liked were quirky and different: They listened to music I’d never heard of, never had lunch or gas money, and could always make you laugh.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) I mean, to me, freaking out is different. More of a running away, not telling anyone what’s wrong, slowly simmering until you burst kind of thing.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) I would have thought this would make me feel better.. getting to be the one to leave and not the one left behind. But it didn’t. Not at all.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) If someone is really close with you, your getting upset or them getting upset is okay, and they don’t change because of it. It’s just part of the relationship. It happens. You deal with it.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) Everything always gets crazy at the end. You just have to keep going, regardless of how awful it gets. So that’s what I do.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) The thing is I’m a great believer in the perfect moment. They don’t come around that often.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) Teaching was great for me, because I got to show people how writing can really change the way you see not only yourself but the world.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) I don’t live in New York or California. I’m in the grocery store, at the park with my kids, and I’m a normal person. I’m feeding my chickens and agonizing about my next book!  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) In my group of friends, I was always the one who remembered everything. The stories, the boys my friends and I dated, all the details. So I think a part of me was always filing them away, although at the time I wasn’t sure why.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) Maybe it was just part of growing up with someone. Once you have a rhythm and stay with it long enough, it’s not hard to find again.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) It’s not that I believe everything happens for a reason. 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 Quotes) I wasn’t very happy in high school: it was a confusing and sort of sad time for me  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) I think part of the problem sometimes is that there’s so much happening in my books, to whittle it down into a single script is hard.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) But that was the problem with having the answers. It was only after you gave them that you realized they sometimes weren’t what people wanted to hear.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) It was as familiar to me as a song I’d been hearing my whole life, covered by various people but the basic tune the same.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes) There was something so heavy about the burden of history, of the past. I wasn’t sure I had it in me to keep looking back.  (Sarah Dessen Quotes)
