“I don’t care how hard being together is, nothing is worse than being apart.”
―
Josephine Angelini,
Starcrossed
“She decided that if Lucas was gay then she was going to have to get a sex change operation. He would be so worth it.” ― Josephine Angelini, Starcrossed
“How do you know all this about me?" Helen sputtered. Claire sighed."After I pushed you off the roof..." she began."After you WHAT?" Lucas yelled.” ― Josephine Angelini, Starcrossed
“So, what can't you take? Decide which of the two options is harder, and do the other. That way, no matter how hard your choice turns out to be, at least you can find comfort in knowing you're avoiding something even worse.” ― Josephine Angelini, Starcrossed
“You've got the killer instincts of a houseplant.” ― Josephine Angelini, Starcrossed
“I only have so much willpower, Helen," he whispered. "And since you apparently sleep in the most ridiculously transparent tank top I've ever seen, I'm going to have to ask you to get under the covers before I do something stupid.” ― Josephine Angelini, Starcrossed
“I don’t know why you’re fighting it, Len. One, he’s frigging gorgeous. Two, he’s so frigging gorgeous you need to count it twice. Three, he saw you fall down and left practice to see if you were okay. That’s, like, devotion.” ― Josephine Angelini, Starcrossed
“What the holy hand grenade was that?” ― Josephine Angelini, Starcrossed
“...try to remember that dreams do come true, but they don't come easily.” ― Josephine Angelini, Dreamless
“Get this. So he comes up to me at lunch, right? And he starts asking me all these questions about you. Like, how long have I known you, where are you from, did I ever meet your mom before she skipped town...''My mom? That's weird,' Helen interrupted.'And I start answering him with my usual flair for clever repartee,' Claire said, a bit too innocently. 'Translation: you insulted him.” ― Josephine Angelini, Starcrossed
“You and I are way to fabulous to be ordinary.” ― Josephine Angelini, Starcrossed
“I was right." She dropped the sword and grabbed Helen in a hug. Then she started jumping up and down, making Helen jump with her. "You're not dead! This is... You have no idea how happy I am I didn't just kill you!" she squealed.” ― Josephine Angelini, Starcrossed
“Never say never,” he said urgently, rolling back on top of her and using all of his unusually heavy mass to press her deep into the cocoon of her little girl bed. “The gods love to toy with people who use absolutes.” ― Josephine Angelini, Starcrossed
“So what are you doing next Friday night?""What have you got in mind?""We could try hitting each other with cars," she suggested cheerfully."Did that last weekend with Jase," he said with mock regret."Go to the zoo and throw ourselves to the lions?" she fired back quickly, desperate to keep him focused on her rather than his caved-in chest. "The Romans sort of wore that one out. Got anything original?" "I'll think of something," she warned him."Can't wait!” ― Josephine Angelini, Starcrossed
“And I don't just WANT you, Helen. I LOVE you. Big difference.” ― Josephine Angelini, Starcrossed
“Some things stay a little bit broken forever—even after they’ve been fixed.” ― Josephine Angelini, Goddess
“Is that how tall you are without those ridiculous shoes?' he said derisively. I think I was born bigger than that.''I bet you were. Five feet of fat head and two inches of a**,' Claire muttered, standing up.'Claire!' Helen blurted out, shocked. Lucas's shoulders were shaking with laughter. Jason pretended to take the joke OK, but Helen suspected his feelings were hurt.” ― Josephine Angelini, Starcrossed
“He's not going around telling everyone you're monkey-butt crazy, so at least you brutalized a seriously sweet guy.” ― Josephine Angelini, Starcrossed
“You certainly do heal fast. But you'll still have some impressive bruises, so if I were you I'd avoid your father for the rest of the night." "I'll just tell him you abuse me," Helen said with a shrug. She jumped off the examining table. "And I'll tell him you like it," he teased back.” ― Josephine Angelini, Starcrossed
