"Life, he realize, was much like a song. In the beginning there is mystery, in the end there is confirmation, but it's in the middle where all the emotion resides to make the whole thing worthwhile."
"-Mom says it's because she has PMS.
-Do you even know what that means?
-I'm not a little kid anymore. It means pissed-at-mensyndrome."
"I mean, if the relationship can't survive the long term, why on earth would it be worth my time and energy for the short term?"
"I have faith that God will show you the answer. But you have to understand that sometimes it takes a while to be able to recognize what God wants you to do. That's how it often is.

In a million years, the same thing should probably never happen again. With odds like that, she should have bought a lottery ticket."
"Ironically, he'd yet to leave a good impression. First he'd spilled soda on her, next she'd seen him almost involved in a riot, and then this morning she'd believed him to be either lazy or an idiot."
"Everyone always noticed Ashley. She was like a flashing neon sign for anyone with an ounce of testosterone."
