The Book of Shhh by Lauren Oliver
5.0
Don't mind me, just making a list with my favorite quotes in here:
"Spotless hands, spotless hearts; disease roots only in darkness."
"We keep this book
in the hand of our heart;
may it grow heavy there."
"shh.
The worst is over now."
"This is, in fact, a secondary definition of deliria: A disease so insidious one always dies from its dominance. It kills you both when you have it, and when you don't."
"As the old saying goes: Idle thoughts are deliria's playthings."
"Pain has value. Pain lends meaning to life. There can be no happiness without pain."
"A home should have no more than a dozen books on the shelves at any time, or else literacy begins to look like a desire to escape."
