Perks of being a Wallflower quotes
3:13:00 AMYou know how the book is always better than the movie ? I watched Perks of being a Wallflower today with da clique :)
I figured out I was reaaalllllyy sleepy when I nod off a few times during the great wonderful movie. Collapsed onto the bed the moment I got home and my intended one hour nap extended to 3 and a half hours. Holayyy.
Past midnight, I went to bathe and suddenly, I suddenly remembered a particular quote.
"Why do I and everyone I love pick people who treat us like we're nothing?" "Charlie, we accept the love we think we deserve."And I made this ! Haha ! Sorry, must watermark :)
I'm using the subtlest way to pass my message across. So hey, I don't know if you ever read my blog or even know I have a blog, that quote and picture is dedicated to you, if you know who you are. So if you ever chance upon here, good for ya'. At least you'll know that someone will still be here :) But too bad, you hardly use Twitter so I guess I can no longer help you anymore :[
Anyway, yeah, I was Google-ing the other quotes of the movie and woahh I'm so gonna read the book. The sentences are simply but effectively phrased, absolutely relatable to anyone some point in life. It's the kind of language I like as well ^^ smooth, comfortable and easy to read. Not those kind whereby you have got to check dictionary for every sentence.
I got these from Wikiquotes:
"I just need to know that someone out there listens and understands and doesn't try to sleep with people even if they could have. I need to know that these people exist."
"Then, I turned around and walked to my room and closed my door and put my head under my pillow and let the quiet put things where they are supposed to be."
"And in that moment, I swear we were infinite"
"This moment will just be another story someday."
"I hope it's the kind of second side that he can listen to whenever he drives alone and feel like he belongs to something whenever he's sad. I hope it can be that for him. "
"Sam and Patrick looked at me. And I looked at them. And I think they knew. Not anything specific really. They just knew. And I think that's all you can ever ask from a friend "
"I don't know if you've ever felt like that. That you wanted to sleep for a thousand years. Or just not exist. Or just not be aware that you do exist. Or something like that. I think wanting that is very morbid, but I want it when I get like this. That's why I'm trying not to think. I just want it all to stop spinning. "
"Sometimes, I look outside, and I think that a lot of other people have seen this snow before. Just like I think that a lot of other people have read those books before. And listened to those songs. I wonder how they feel tonight. "
(Can't help but laugh at this hehe) "Everyone else is either asleep or having sex. I've been watching cable television and eating jello. "
"And all the books you’ve read have been read by other people. And all the songs you’ve loved have been heard by other people. And that girl that’s pretty to you is pretty to other people. And you know that if you looked at these facts when you were happy, you would feel great because you are describing “unity”. "
"It’s like when you are excited about a girl and you see a couple holding hands, and you feel so happy for them. And other times you see the same couple, and they make you so mad. And all you want is to always feel happy for them because you know that if you do, then it means you’re happy, too. "
"Everything can't be low self-esteem, can it? "
"I don’t know how much longer I can keep going without a friend. I used to be able to do it very easily, but that was before I knew what having a friend was like. It’s much easier not to know things sometimes. And to have French fries with your mom be enough. "
"But because things change. And friends leave. And life doesn’t stop for anybody. "
"I remembered this one time that I never told anyone about. The time we were walking. Just the three of us. And I was in the middle. I don’t remember where and I don't remember when. I don't even remember the season. I just remember walking between them and feeling for the first time that I belonged somewhere. "
“It's great that you can listen and be a shoulder to someone, but what about when someone doesn't need a shoulder? What if they need the arms or something like that? You can't just sit there and put everybody's lives ahead of yours and think that counts as love. You just can't. You have to do things.”
"And we could all sit around and wonder and feel bad about each other and blame a lot of people for what they did or didn't do or what they didn't know. I don't know. I guess there could always be someone to blame. "
"So I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. And maybe we'll never know most of them. But even if we don't have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there. We can still do things. And we can try to feel okay about them.
Things just keep going. We didn't talk about anything heavy or light. We were just there together. And that was enough. "
"And nobody felt sad as long as we could post-pone tomorrow with more nostalgia. "
"I don't want to start thinking again. Not like I have this last week. I can't think again. Not ever again. "
''It's better not to know things sometimes. "
"It was a hopeful kind of sad. The kind that just takes time."
