Beautiful Disaster is a beautiful, intense, passionate, and a very romantic love story. It's one of those novels that beg to be read over and over again. I, for one, have decided to read this again because I wanted to write a review on the book. I don't know why but I think I fell in love more with the characters. I'm glad I've read it again because I got to revisit my favorite scenes as well as those which I seem to have forgotten.
There's no harm in wanting more. Sometimes it's what we need to make us work harder.
With math, as long as you have all the necessary factors, you can find the answer. Life, on the other hand, is so much messier.
"If you can just stop loving her, then you never really loved her at all. Love doesn't work that way. If you ever truly love someone, then it never goes away. It can become something else. There are all different sorts of love. It can even become hate - a thin line and all that - and, really, hate is just another kind of caring."
Fine's a funny word, don't you think? I don't think there's another like it in the English language that says so much while actually saying so little. How many wives have told their husbands, "I'm fine," when they really mean, "I want to cut your balls off with a butcher knife?" How many men have told their girlfriends, "You look fine," when they really mean, "You need to go back to the gym and work out - a lot." It's the universal way of saying we're just peachy - when we're really anything but.
Maybe love isn't just a bouquet of roses once in a while. Maybe it's just sticking it out, when it's hard, when you're mad, when you're tired.
Life is random and fucked-up and arbitrary, until you find someone who can make sense of it all for you— if only temporarily.
A world without love is also a world without stakes.
Love holds the power to break you. It holds the power to complete you.
“The greatest and most powerful revolutions often start very quietly, hidden in the shadows. Remember that.”
