My head rested, ear pressed To cream-colored couch. It was warm From a fever-wrought forehead, and the air tasted damp and stale Like buttered toast left on the counter all day....

\&quot;There is never a time or place for true love. It happens accidentally, in a heartbeat, in a single flashing, throbbing moment.\&quot; <br /> &mdash; Sarah Dessen (The Truth about Forever) <br /> \&quot;It\&#039;s a lot easier to be lost than found. It\&#039;s the reason we\&#039;re always searching and rarely discovered--so many locks not enough keys.\&quot; <br /> &mdash; Sarah Dessen (Lock and Key) <br /> \&quot;You know, when it works, love is pretty amazing. It\&#039;s not overrated. There\&#039;s a reason for all those songs.\&quot; <br /> &mdash; Sarah Dessen (This Lullaby)
