Quotations from the book

The Sun Is Also a Star

Nicola Yoon

We are capable of big lives. A big history. Why settle? Why choose the practical thing, the mundane thing? We are born to dream and make the things we dream about.

—Nicola Yoon in The Sun Is Also a Star

I love this part of getting to know someone. How every new piece of information, every new expression, seems magical.

—Nicola Yoon in The Sun Is Also a Star

How can this be the same day? How can all these people be going about their lives totally oblivious to what's been happening to mine? Sometimes your world shakes so hard, it's difficult to imagine that everyone else isn't feeling it too.

—Nicola Yoon in The Sun Is Also a Star
