“This was the trouble with Dylan. Friendly Dylan would lull you into a false sense of complacency, then crazy-hot Dylan would club you over the head and drag you off before you even noticed anything had changed.” ― Piper Lawson, Schooled
“being alone is good sometimes. Because no matter what happens, ther are times in your life when all you have is you. And you've got to learn to have your own back.” ― Piper Lawson, Bad Girl
“But a relationship isn’t forged in a moment, and it isn’t demolished in one, either. There’s always something to be saved, if you want to save it.” ― Piper Lawson, A Love Song for Dreamers
“A single chord can be the start of a thousand songs,” he says, so quietly I can’t tell if he’s talking to me or himself. “Songs about love. Hate. Betrayal. Longing. You can’t judge a song from a few notes.” ― Piper Lawson, Love Notes
“He was one of those guys whose intensity made you feel like you were the center of their entire world. He could've been thinking "I know all your darkest secrets" or "I could go for some spaghetti" and I wouldn't have known the difference when his eyes were on me like that.” ― Piper Lawson, Schooled
“Finding love is easy. Keeping it, trusting it, putting it first on the good days and the bad ones… that’s what takes courage.” ― Piper Lawson, Forever Wicked
“I love you. I loved you first. And no matter what happens, dammit, I’ll love you later.” ― Piper Lawson, Beautiful Ruin
“Tell me you love me,” he rasps against my ear…“I loved you once. More than I thought I could love another person.” The words stick in my throat…“Then love me again.” He leans his forehead against mine.…“Until you do, I’ll love enough for both of us.” ― Piper Lawson, Beautiful Ruin
“Yeah, well, they don't exactly grow on trees.” I blink up at him. “They do. They're wood.” ― Piper Lawson, A Love Song for Liars
“But it’s okay, Jax. We can spend our lifetimes regretting. Atoning. For the things we chose, the ones we didn’t. That’s not why we’re here. Our job isn’t to regret. Our job is to live.” ― Piper Lawson, Wicked Girl
“Ryan’s right. You do need a new guitar.” I drop onto the seat across from him, shifting forward to trace a finger across the body of his instrument. The wood is cheap to begin with, and it’s banged up. “Yeah, well, they don't exactly grow on trees.” I blink up at him. “They do. They're wood.” ― Piper Lawson, A Love Song for Liars
“You can live a hundred years without really living a minute’.” ― Piper Lawson, Wicked Girl
“You said you wanted to get out and find something of your own. Here’s the world. Where do you want to go?”I inspected the globe. “I could get a job in Europe. Or work for some designer in Paris. Or on a farm in Australia. With sheep. Sheep don’t fuck with your emotions.” ― Piper Lawson, NSFW
“I heard from your reference this afternoon.” I forced a smile. Wiped away the sweat on my palms. “And?”“He had some strong opinions. He said you’re smart and resourceful. That you’re unpredictable but you’re better than anyone who can be controlled. That I should hide the cookies, whatever that means. That you care about the right things more than the rules, and that I should hire you twice if I got the chance.” ― Piper Lawson, NSFW
“When you said this mattered more to me than I knew, you were right,” I hear myself go on. “But you were wrong to say it didn’t matter to you. Or Olivia. Or Madison. There are moments in your life that you have a chance to be better than you are. To do things that are hard, even if you’re not sure you can. That’s why we do them. Because they’re hard. Because we might fail. And it’s not only a professional success or failure. Every choice you make turns you into the person you are. You just need to decide what kind of person you want to be.” ― Piper Lawson, Claim
“I’m a different woman than I was a year ago. I’m stronger and weaker. I hurt more and I love more. I didn’t think it was possible to be both of those things.” ― Piper Lawson, Beautiful Ruin
“If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that if you can’t laugh at life’s coincidences—the good things and the bad things and the horrible ones—you might as well be dead.” ― Piper Lawson, Good Girl
“I want to assume responsibility for this girl about as much as I want to adopt a special needs goldfish,” ― Piper Lawson, Good Girl
