Awareness

Lauren Oliver
"I feel a flash of grief so intense it almost makes me cry out: not for what I lost, but for the chances I missed."

Emotion

Quote_1.png
Lauren Oliver
"That was the problem with the outside world, the human world. The whole thing was made up puzzles, of a language she didn't quite speak."

Perception

Quote_1.png
Lauren Oliver
"I don't understand how everything changes, how the layers of your life get buried. Impossible. At some point, at some time, we must all explode."

Change

Quote_1.png
Lauren Oliver
"Maybe Lindsay and I are best friends and we hate each other, both. Maybe I'm only one math class away from being a slut like Anna Cartullo. Maybe I am like her, deep down. Maybe we all are: just one lunch period away from eating alone in the bathroom. I wonder if it's ever really possible to know the truth about someone else, or if the best we can do is just stumble into each other, heads down, hoping to avoid collision."

Friendship

Hope

Quote_1.png
Lauren Oliver
"It struck her how sad it was that all of them had grown up on top of one another like small animals in a too-small cage, and now would simply scatter. And that would be the end of that. Everything that had happened would be sucked away into memory and vapour, as though it hadn't even happened at all."

Memory

Quote_1.png
Lauren Oliver
"That's a funny thing: you think, when awful things happen, everything else just stops, like you would forget to pee and eat and get thirsty, but it's not really true. It's like you and your body are two separate things, like your body is betraying you, chugging on, idiotic and animal, craving water and sandwiches and bathroom breaks while your world falls apart."

Survival

Quote_1.png
Lauren Oliver
"The hours here are flat and round, disks of gray layered one on top of the other...they move slowly, at a grind, until it seems as though they are not moving at all. They are just pressing down..."

"In all seriousness, Archer claims that if you, as a living, alive person, hear the song "You're the One That I Want" from the musical Grease three times in a single day - seemingly by accident, whether in an elevator, on a radio, a telephone hold button, or whatever - it indicates that you'll surely die before sunset."
