“i wouldn't care how small the world became as long as i had Cassia at the center of mine”

“I wouldn't take that tablet Cassia. Not for a report. And perhaps not ever. You are strong enough to go without it.”

“This is a cruel thing to do because when someone knows your story they know you. And they can hurt you. It's why I give mine away in pieces, even to Cassia.”

“That’s how I know they are dreams. Because the simple and plain and everyday things are the ones that we can never have. (Cassia Reyes)”

“I came up on the screen, too, Cassia. But he was the one you chose to see.”

“I wouldn't have seen the light if she hadn't pointed out, but once sje did, it became impossible to ignore.”

“There is so much that I want. I feel it so much that I am water, a river of want, pooled in the shape of a girl named Cassia.”
