“I never thought about how important the sky was until I didn't have one.”

“Power isn’t control at all — power is strength, and giving that strength to others. A leader isn’t someone who forces others to make him stronger; a leader is someone willing to give his strength to others that they may have the strength to stand on their own.” ― Beth Revis, Across the Universe
“(D)reams are like that: they go in and out of memories and scenes, but they're never real. They're never real, and I hate them because they aren't.” ― Beth Revis, Across the Universe
“I can think of no better way to meet a girl than to see her through the eyes of the story she loves best.” ― Beth Revis, A World Without You
“And in her smile I see something more beautiful than the stars.” ― Beth Revis, Across the Universe
“This is the secret of the stars, I tell myself. In the end, we are alone. No matter how close you seem, no one else can touch you. ~ Amy” ― Beth Revis, Across the Universe
“Well, sometimes home is a person.” ― Beth Revis, A Million Suns
“It is like a piece of my soul had been lost, empty, and it is now filled with the light of a million stars.” ― Beth Revis, Across the Universe
“That's all you need to know about Godspeed," he says. "Although you should also know this. I am Eldest." Good for you, I think. Congrats on being old.” ― Beth Revis, Across the Universe
“The glitter in the sky looks as if I could scoop it all up in my hands and let the stars swirl and touch one another but they are so distant so very far apart that they cannot feel the warmth of each other even though they are made of burning.” ― Beth Revis, Across the Universe
“But...If my life on Earth must end, let it end with a promise. Let it end with hope.” ― Beth Revis, Across the Universe
“I want to take her into my arms and hold her tight. But at the same time, I know that is the exact opposite of what she wants. She wants to be free, and all I want is to hold her tight against me. ~ Elder” ― Beth Revis, Across the Universe
“Choice or no, my heart is his.” ― Beth Revis, A Million Suns
“For a moment, he looks back at me, and his farewell is in his smile. Then he turns to the stars. And he is gone.” ― Beth Revis, Across the Universe
“Maybe the secret of the stars has nothing to do with being alone.” ― Beth Revis, Across the Universe
“I learned that life is so, so fragile. I learned that you can know someone for just days and never forget the impression he left on you. I learned that art can be beautiful and sad at the same time. I learned that if someone loves you, he'll wait for you to love him back. I learned that how much you want something doesn't determine whether you get it or not, that "no" might not be enough, that life isn't fair, that my parents can't save me, that maybe no one can.” ― Beth Revis, Shades of Earth
“Will you stay with me?" I whisper."Always.” ― Beth Revis, Across the Universe
“Sorry? Sorry? Sorry isn't enough. Every. Single. Thing. I ever loved is beyond my reach now. Everything I ever wanted. Everything I ever was.” ― Beth Revis, Across the Universe
“Love without choice isn't love at all.” ― Beth Revis, A Million Suns
