Quotes by : Matt de la Pena

But mostly I remember every morning before school. How she'd say "Hey, honey!" just I was walking out....

But not just alive like I was yesterday and the day before. Alive like I knew I was alive. Like I could....

But when you read books you almost feel like you're out there in the world. Like you're going on this....

Sometimes when you're surrounded by dirt...you're a better witness for what's beautiful.

I stayed there on the floor like that for a long, long time.Eating and crying.Crying and eating.
