Thanks! Alice Clayton's is just brilliant and is definitely one we all need to remember. The last two made me laugh too!
DeleteI'd forgotten about how awesome that quote was from The Selection - that was one of the only moments where I wanted to give America a high-five. I haven't read Awaken yet, but I really need to get around to it! Great choices :)
ReplyDeleteI know! It's one of the best things America says! Awaken is a good read too.
DeleteThe Perks of Being a Wall Flower quote is one that plays over and over in my head. Love it, love it, love it!! The Princess Bride one is also fantastic!!
ReplyDeleteThe Perks quote is one that I will always remember, it's such a good quote. The Princes Bride has a lot of memorable quotes too - it was hard just choosing one!
DeleteThe Divergent Quote is so strong and brilliant - I also love The Perks of Being a Wallflower quote, it's become such a classic! Great list :)
