Well, from the book...
"So, this is my life. And I want you to know that I am both happy and sad and I'm still trying to figure out how that could be".
"You see things. You keep quiet about them. And you understand" - Patrick
"I just think it's bad when a boy looks at a girl and thinks that the way he sees the girl is better than the girl actually is".
"Maybe these are my glory days, and I'm not even realizing it because they don't involve a ball."
"I look at the field, and I think about the boy who just made the touchdown. I think that these are the glory days for that boy, and this moment will just be another story someday because all the people who make touchdowns and home runs will become somebody's dad. And when his children look at his year photograph, they will think that their dad was rugged and handsome and looked a lot happier than they are.
"I just hope I remember to tell my kids that they are as happy as I look in my old photographs. And I hope that they believe me".
"First, I am very interested and fascinated by how everyone loves each other, but no one really likes each other".
"I don't think we should base so much on weight, muscles, and a good hair day, but when it happens, it's nice. It really is".
"I don't know if you ever felt like that. That you wanted to sleep a thousand years. Or just not exist. Or just not be aware that you do exist. Or something like that. I think wanting that is very morbid, but I want it when I get like this. That's why I'm trying not to think. I just want it all to stop spinning".
"It's like when you are excited about a girl and you see a couple holding hands, and you feel so happy for them. And another times you see the same couple, and they make you so mad. And all you want is to always feel happy for them because you know that if you do, then it means that you're happy, too".
"But because things change. And friends leave. And life doesn't stop for anybody".
"Charlie, don't you get it? I can't feel that. It's sweet and everything, but it's like you're not even there sometimes. It's great that you can listen and be a shoulder to someone, but what about when someone doesn't need a shoulder. What if they need the arms or something like that? You can't just sit there and put everybody's lives ahead of yours and think that counts as love. You just can't. You have to do things [...] Like take their hands when the slow song comes up for a change. Or be the one who asks someone for a date. Or tell people what you need. Or what you want". - Sam
"So, why would I care whether or not he loved me when he didn't really even know me?" - Sam
"So, I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. And maybe we'll never know most of them. But even if we don't have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there. We can still do things. And we can try to feel okay about them".
"And even if somebody else has it much worse, that doesn't really change the fact that you have what you have. Good and bad".
