Famous Quotes by Morgan Matson

“All the stuff you can’t wait to get away from, until it’s not there anymore, and then you miss it like crazy.”

Real friends are the ones you can count on no matter what. The ones who go into the forest to find you and bring you home. And real friends never have to tell you that they’re your friends.

It's not about the destination. It’s getting there that’s the good part.

You promise to stay in touch with people, but it doesn’t work out. It never does. And you forget about what the friendship used to be like, why you liked that person. And I hated it.

I knew in that moment that things would be forever different—that today was going to be the day that split my life into before and after.

Sometimes we get a little bit of a facade. We think we have people—family, friends—but in the end, it’s just you and the darkness. Everyone leaves eventually, my young friend.

It’s always a risk. Wherever there is great emotion. Because there is power in that. And few people handle power well.

When you move as much as I have, you know how it ends. You promise to stay in touch with people, but it doesn’t work out. And you forget what the friendship used to be like.

Terrible things happened when you were least expecting them, but it seemed that wonderful things could happen too.

It seemed like the second you tried to tell someone why you loved someone else, it took the luster off it, like pinning a butterfly down in a case—it never quite captured it.

You can always find your way out, no matter how lost you are.
