“Attie, even when you find that boy who belives you´re beautiful and falls head over heels in love with you, the love won´t be perfect. It will be flawed, just like the boy who gives it.”

“When you stop expecting people to be perfect, you can like them for who they are.”

“They say when you fall in love in love with someone that person becomes like a drug,an addiction you don't want to live without.”

“You are what you love not who loves you"- Fall Out Boy”

“Sometimes when we're in love, we take the facts and spin them into pretty stories. But it's a dangerous thing to do--because one day, like it or not, you're going to see the world as it really is. You find out people aren't always who you want them to be. And if you're not ready for the truth...well, let's just say it can come as a bit of a shock.”

“Believing in God is as much like falling in love as it is making a decision. Love is both something that happens to you and something you decide upon.”

“Like most girls, I want a lot. Fame and fortune. Equal rights. Shoes no one else has. But I'd trade all that in for the perfect guy. (Don't tell me there's something wrong with that. I don't know of a single person who doesn't spend most of her time thinking about love.) Anyway, ever since I could think, I have been imagining and reimagining the exact sort of boy I want to love and who would love me back. Basically, I imagine someone who has all the good attributes of the male species and whose bad ones wouldn't ruin my life.”
