“People get mad Annabel. Its not the end of the world.”

“It's a choice, Annabel. And if you make the wrong one, you have only yourself to blame when there are consequences.”

“But maybe that isn't so bad. You can't love anyone that way more than once in a lifetime. It's too hard and it hurts too much when it ends. The first boy is ialways the hardest to get over, Haven. It's just the way the world works.”

“In the end, though, maybe it's not how you reach a place that matters. Just that you get there at all.”

“Never would forever, with all its meanings, be so clear and distinct as in the true, guaranteed end of the world.”

“Maybe not," she said as we came to the car. "But maybe that isn't so bad. You can't love anyone that way more than once in a lifetime. It's too hard and it hurts too much when it ends. The first boy is always the hardest to get over, Haven. It's just the way the world works.”

“Then what are you like, Annabel?" he shot back. "A liar, like you told me that first day? Come on. That was the biggest lie of all.”
