“He was the sort of guy who took a lot without giving her anything backThe more he hurt her the more desperately she loved him. Life's strange. Sometimes things happen almost as if we're punishing ourselves for some fault that we can't really identify.”
“Even when apologising, this guy turns on the charm. And the worst thing is that it works.She had reached a point in her life where she no longer expected anything from men, though that didn't stop her from falling in love with them.”
“She needs someone who will be everything for her: her friend, her boyfriend, her confidant, her lover and sometimes even her enemy.”
“They kiss.The kiss that will change everything. Elliot will never have been happier than with this girl, funny, down to earth and bohemian, who dreamed of remaking the world as she ate her pizza.And Ilena will never have felt more beautiful than through the gaze of this mysterious and appealing boy that fate had thrown in her path in such a strange way.”
“Some say that you know real love when you realise the only person in the world who can console you is the one who has hurt you.”
“We think that some ties are so strong that they can withstand anything, but it's not true. When trust is broken, weariness sets in. Then poor choices, the deceptive lure of seduction and sorry twists of fate, all conspire to kill off love. In this type of unusual contest, the chances of winning are slim, more the exception than the rule.”
“It seemed as if I could see things in her that others couldn't see, qualities which not even she was aware of. It was as I I could already see in her the woman she would later become.”
