“I belong wherever I want to be.”

Jasper chuckled, shaking his head. You truly are one frightening little monster.

I glanced, wide eyed, from Edward’s grimace to Jacob’s sneer.

Your hair looks like a haystack but I like it.

When I told you I didn’t want you, it was the blackest kind of blasphemy.

So what are you going to tell her? A little help? I pleaded. What does she want to know? He shook his head, grinning wickedly. That’s not fair. No, you not sharing what you know-now that’s not fair.

Today is the first and last day of forever.

You are the most beautiful thing in my world.

You dont know how hard it was for me to take you and leave them alive.

It felt almost rude to ignore toe pretty white bed, but we just weren’t going to make it that far.

Death is Peaceful, Life is Harder.

Life and love go on.

Her name is Wanda, not it. You will not touch her. Any mark you leave on her, I will double on your worthless hide.

She was thinking what I think she was thinking, wasn’t she?

Those who assume a character which does not belong to them, only make themselves ridiculous.

Who belonged to no one, who belonged to everyone. Who had nothing, who wanted everything.

You are imperfect, you are wired for struggle, but you are worthy of love and belonging.

Keep your attention focused entirely on what is truly your own concern, and be clear that what belongs to others is their business and none of yours.

Be you and serve up some belonging wherever you are.

Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy – the experiences that make us the most vulnerable.
