“ The thing about a break-up is that it’s kinda similar to a death. You pictured yourself married and having kids and the whole thing. So you’ve got this past that you experienced and this future you’ve foreseen, and now all of that is gone. And the thing about a death is, you have to give yourself permission to mourn it. Some days you’re just going to get sad and that’s it. And it’s okay to be sad and not try to orchestrate or manipulate your own emotions. ”

“ Those awful things are survivable because we are as indestructible as we believe ourselves to be. When adults say, “Teenagers think they are invincible,” with that sly, stupid smile on their faces, they don’t know how right they are. We need never be hopeless, because we can never be irreparably broken. ”

“ You can’t just make yourself matter and then die, Alaska, because now I am irretrievably different, and I’m sorry I let you go yes, but you made the choice. You left me Perhapsless, stuck in your labyrinth. And now I don’t even know if you chose the straight and fast way out, if you left me like this on purpose. And so I never knew you, did I? I can’t remember, because I never knew. ”
