Quotes by Monica Hesse

Girls in love will do desperate and creative things.

I found a girl who wasnt the girl I was looking for. I let go of a friend Ill still miss every day. Ill go back to work. Ill get better. Ill get better slowly. Ill find all the secret, hidden things.

Tow best friends meeting on the street to say so many things at once: I betrayed you, I love you, I want to save you, Im sorry. All around Europe, people are dying by the hundreds of thousands. And here, in my city, the Nazis slaughtered a family because of events that started with love and jealousy and a slip of the tongue.

But I supposed love doesnt stop, even in wars.

Then you know. You know what its like to love someone like you love yourself and lose them.

But when it comes down to it, we all die alone.

My heart will still ache sometimes. Maybe more often than not. I think its possible to be healed without feeling whole.
