My favourite Ari and Dante quotes

• “Sometimes pain was like a storm that came out of nowhere.”
• “We all fight our own private wars.”
• “The problem with my life was that it was someone else’s idea.”
• “How could I have ever been ashamed of loving Dante Quintana?”
• “I had a feeling there was something wrong with me. I guess I was a mystery even to myself.”
• “It was good to laugh. I wanted to laugh and laugh and laugh until I laughed myself into becoming someone else.”
• “This is my problem. I want other people to tell me how they feel. But I’m not so sure I want to return the favor.”
• “Scars. A sign that you had been hurt. A sign that you had healed.”
• “There are worse things in the world than a boy who likes to kiss other boys.”
• “The problem with trying not to think about something was that you thought about it even more.”
• “Kiss me.” “No,” And then he smiled. “You kiss me.”
• “I didn’t think it was my job to accept what everyone said I was and who I should be.”
