Stephanie Perkins Quote

The directness of her question throws me. I don't know. Sometimes I think there are only so many opportunities...to get together with someone. And we've both screwed up so many times- my voice grows quiet - that we've missed our chance.Anna. Mer pauses. That is the dumbest thing I've ever heard.But—But what? You love him, and he loves you, and you live in the most romantic city in the world.
