First Comes Love
Katie Kacvinsky
Top 10 Best Quotes
“Life is too short to waste time on people who don't lift you up, who don't inspire you-they'll eventually drain you.”
“I crave space. It charges my batteries. It helps me breathe. Being around people can be so exhausting, because most of them love to take and barely know how to give. Except for a rare few.”
“I don’t know much, but this is what I’ve learned. You’ll fall for the last person you ever thought you’d be interested in. That’s the tricky part. You might not even notice her at first. And she usually comes around just when you’ve stopped looking. But if you pay attention, you’ll know it’s her because she’ll stand out from everybody else. She might even scare you. But if you’re lucky enough to meet this girl, be smart enough to realize it and try not to screw it up.”
“If you only focus on the things you leave behind, you'll never go anywhere.”
“When your world's become one person, how do you prepare to let her go? How do you get over someone you know you'll never forget?”
“I think everyone’s caught up in these narrow-minded worlds and they think their world exists in the center of the universe. Relationships only happen when it’s convenient. You have to walk on eggshells for people because that’s about how strong they are these days. And you can’t confront people, because if you do, that brittle shell of confidence will crack. So we all become passive cowards that carry a fake smile wherever we go because God forbid you let your guard down long enough for people to see your life isn’t perfect. That you have a few flaws. Because who wants to see that? My theory is everybody sucks. So, my conclusion is I don’t need anybody.”
“What do you say when you’re not enough to make someone stay?”
“Look around you. The earth wouldn't exist without the sun. Plants would die without rain. We're all meant to lean on something. Or someone.”
“Live a little," she tells me. "You're never going to experience anything if you wait around for perfect conditions.”
“It's amazing how far you're willing to go when someone believes in you”
