Famous Taylor Jenkins Reid Quotes

“Pero en esa época pensaba que la música iba simplemente de eso, de música. Pero la música nunca va de música. Si fuera así, estaríamos escribiendo canciones sobre guitarras. Pero no lo hacemos. Escribimos canciones sobre mujeres. Las mujeres te aplastan, ¿sabes? Supongo que todo el mundo hace daño a todo el mundo, pero ¿te has dado cuenta de que las mujeres parecen volver a levantarse? Las mujeres siempre están de pie. -Graham”

“She had written something that felt like I could have written it, except I knew I couldn't have. I wouldn't have come up with something like that. Which is what we all want from art, isn't it? When someone pins down something that feels like it lives inside us? Takes a piece of your heart out and shows it to you? It's like they are introducing you to a part of yourself.”

“You guys are late,” Hud said. “Nina’s probably waiting for us.” “Jay had to run some secret operation,” Kit said. “Kit had to change her clothes four times,” Jay offered. “Once. I changed my clothes once.” “What secret operation?” Hud asked as Jay looked at passing traffic and then gunned it into the right lane. “It’s nothing,” Jay said. “Lay off.” And that’s when everyone knew it was a woman. Hud felt his shoulders loosen. If Jay was interested in someone new, that would soften the blow. “Consider me officially laying off then,” he said, both hands up in surrender. “Yeah,” Kit said. “Like anyone gives a shit anyway.”

“She thought she looked cool. Like, actually cool. She could feel herself starting to well up. Nina came up behind her, put her arms around her, and said, “You look like a million bucks, babe.” This outfit made her feel like there were parts of herself she was just meeting for the first time. Kit could barely contain the smile on her face. She hung her own arms around her sister’s and said, “Thank you.”

“She tried to imagine her parents doing what she was doing right now, crashing a famous party in Malibu. She could not even picture it. But she understood that while the circumstances were almost unrecognizable, she did still have the instincts they’d given her. After all, when they could not have a child, they went out in search of one. They had taught her that family is found, that whether it be blood or circumstance or choice, what binds us does not matter. All that matters is that we are bound.”

“I wish someone had told me that love isn’t torture. Because I thought love was this thing that was supposed to tear you in two and leave you heartbroken and make your heart race in the worst way. I thought love was bombs and tears and blood. I did not know that it was supposed to make you lighter, not heavier. I didn’t know it was supposed to take only the kind of work that makes you softer. I thought love was war. I didn’t know it was supposed to… I didn’t know it was supposed to be peace.”

“Às vezes as pessoas fazem as coisas porque estão irritadas ou chateadas ou porque estão a fim de brigar. E essas coisas podem magoar. Porém, o que magoa mais é quando alguém faz as coisas por apatia. Por não se importar mais com você como na época da faculdade. Por não se importar mais com você como na época em que se casaram. Por não se importar mais com você. E, como ainda existe uma parte minúscula dentro de mim que ainda se importa, que fica enfurecida com o fato de ele não se importar mais, faço uma coisa que nunca fiz antes. Que jamais pensei que algum dia fosse fazer. Faço uma coisa que, mesmo enquanto estou fazendo, não acredito que esteja acontecendo de verdade. Eu pego o vaso. O vaso de vidro. E atiro na porta atrás dele. Com flores e tudo.”

“I think people that are too similar... they don’t mix well. Are used to think soulmates were two of the same. Are used to think I was supposed to look for somebody that was just like me. I don’t believe in soulmates anymore and I’m not looking for anything. But if I did believe in them, I believe your soulmate with somebody who had all the things you didn’t, that needed all the things you had. Not somebody who’s suffering from the same stuff you are.”

“KAREN: Creo que las personas que se parecen demasiado... no son una buena combinación. Antes pensaba que almas gemelas eran dos personas iguales, que debía buscar a alguien que fuese como yo. Ya no creo en las almas gemelas, y no busco nada. Pero, si creyera en ellas, creería que tu alma gemela es alguien que tiene todo lo que a ti te falta, y que necesita todo lo que tú tienes. No alguien con quien compartes la misma mierda.”

“Ojalá alguien me hubiera dicho que el amor no es una tortura. Porque yo creía que el amor era algo que se suponía que te partía en dos, que te rompía el corazón y que te lo aceleraba para mal. Creía que el amor era munición y lágrimas y sangre. No sabía que se suponía que te hacía sentir más ligera en vez de añadirte peso. Que te convierte en alguien cariñoso. Creía que el amor era la guerra. No sabía que se suponía que... era paz”
