Quotations from the book

Stay

Deb Caletti

You can forget that other people carry pieces of your own story around in their heads. I've always thought—put together all those random pieces from everyone whose ever known you, from your parents to the guy who once sat next to you on a bus, and you'd probably see a fuller version of your life than you even did while living it.

—Deb Caletti in Stay

You have ordinary moments and ordinary moments and more ordinary moments, and then, suddenly, there is something monumental right there. You have past and future colliding in the present, your own personal Big Bang, and nothing will ever be the same.

—Deb Caletti in Stay
