“Above all else, I had learned the one thing every person has to learn to make it through life: the only person you can truly count on is yourself.”

“No one had ever taught him - and he had never imagined the necessity of learning - how to betray the one person whom you truly cared for in life. The only person who genuinely loved you. How to break that person's heart, whether it be tomorrow, or five years or ten years in the future.”

“One of the things I'd learned ... was how to take a compliment. Just say, "Thank you." It's the only response a confident person can make.”

“The one thing I had learned in my sixteen years was that you couldn't count on anyone to stick around. Opening yourself up only causes trouble in the end.”

“The only person who is educated is the one who has learned how to learn and change.”

“I've learned one thing: you can only really get to know a person after a row. Only then can you judge their true character!”
