To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before (2018)
1 Rereading my letters reminds me of how powerful my emotions can be, how all-consuming. -Lara Jean
It’s perfectly fine to be emotional. Never let anyone shame you for that. We are all different and all of us have different boundaries. So it’s fine to experience emotions intensely.
2 Cause the more people you let into your life, the more that can just walk right out. -Lara Jean
Letting a lot of people into your life is sometimes just scary. The more people you let into your life, the more the chances of them leaving you. And when they leave, it’s just unbearable.
3 Lara Jean, ladies and gentlemen, You can count on her to be honest, Always. -Lara Jean
Honesty is a rare virtue in this day and age. It’s difficult to find people who are honest with you no matter what. Honesty needs to be appreciated.
4 You’d rather make up a fantasy version of somebody in your head than be with a real person. -Dr. Covey
Most of us have the habit of fantasizing about someone else while being anxious about actually talking to people. We’d rather make up imaginary scenarios in our head rather than just interact with real people.
5 It’s so cool how we can talk to each other about real stuff. -Peter Kavinsky
Sometimes, what we need is someone to talk about real issues that matter to us. Rather than making up small talk, it’s better if we learn to speak out our mind and thoughts.
6 Can you maybe just admit that some part of you doesn’t want everything in your life to be a fantasy? -Margot
We all imagine our life to be a fantasy where everything is magical and perfect. But more than that, the imperfections, the highs and lows, the tragedies and the beautiful moments are what makes life so beautiful. If life is like a fantasy, it would not have the same fun.
7 I was lying to every person, and I knew I couldn’t lie to you. -Lara Jean
Lying to people is one of the worst things that you can do. But no matter how deceitful you are, sometimes, you just cannot lie to the person who is close to you and matters so much to you.
8 It’s not like in the movies, It’s better because it’s real. -Peter Kavinsky
The things that you are shown in the movies are just fiction. They may seem to be beautiful and perfect, but in reality, they are all just stories. The moments of your life are better than the movies because they are real.
9 I didn’t know it, but now that I think about it, it seems like that’s all I’ve ever wanted, To really be somebody’s, and to have them be mine. -Lara Jean
Sometimes, what we really need in life is someone who will be there for us. Someone who we can call ours, someone who we can belong to and who belongs to us. Someone who can be with us and support us throughout our life.
10 I see the difference now, between loving someone from afar and loving someone up close. -Lara Jean
There’s a very big difference between loving someone from afar and loving them for. The former involves fantasizing about them and making up scenarios in your head while the latter is more real and true.
11 I want to be that person for him, I want to be the one who keeps him going during this difficult time. -Lara Jean
Real love is when you are there for them through their tough times. It is when you keep them going even when the future seems bleak and hopeless.
12 It feels strange to have spent so much time wishing for something, for someone, and then one day, suddenly, to just stop. -Lara Jean
That beautiful, cathartic moment when you finally realise you’ve moved on is so beautiful. When you finally realise that, them not being there in your life, doesn’t matter anymore, that you’ve finally let go of their memories and the dreams that you had of them.
To All The Boys: P.S. I Still Love You (2020)
1 It’s the connection between two people that can’t be severed, even when love turns to hate. -Lara Jean
Sometimes, love may transform into hate, but the bond that you once shared will always remain. The love that you harbored for them in your heart won’t vanish. They’ll remain in your heart as will the memories.
2 I know now that I don’t want to love or be loved in half measures, I want it all, and to have it all, you have to risk it all. -Lara Jean
Love with a half-hearted passion is never enough. The best kind of love is when you can risk it all, without any restraint and go all out. You should love them with all your heart with no regard to the consequences that you may possibly have to face.
3 When you lose someone and it still hurts, that’s when you know the love was real. -Lara Jean
When you really love someone, losing them breaks your heart. Most of the time, it’s when you lose them that you realize you loved them.
4 If two people are meant to be, they’ll find their way to each other. -Lara Jean
If two people are really meant to be together, they will eventually find their way to each other. Everything in life happens for a reason. And what’s meant for you will eventually find its way to you.
5 I’ve heard people say that the more you like someone, the more you think they are beautiful even if you didn’t think so in the beginning. -Lara Jean
Love makes you oversee a person’s flaws. Genuine love is when you can see the inner beauty of a person. Even if you didn’t find them beautiful at the beginning, you will eventually start admiring them for the person that they are.
6 I wanted something that doesn’t exist, I wanted a happily ever after. -Lara Jean
Life is full of ups and downs. There’ll never be a perpetual state of happiness. Life always oscillates between happiness and sorrow. And this uncertainty of not knowing what life has in store for you is what makes it so beautiful.
7 Sometimes you have to kiss the wrong man to know what’s right. -Stormy
Sometimes you have to be with the wrong person to know what is right for you. Only when you know what is bad for you can you truly appreciate what is right. The right person will eventually come to you.
8 A girl’s relationship with her father is the most important male relationship of her life. -Lara Jean
The relationship that a girl shares with her father is the most important and beautiful relationship with a male that she can have. The love that they have is the purest and most genuine.
9 You have to let yourself be fully present in every moment, Just be awake for it, do you know what I mean? -Peter
Live in the moment instead of dwelling in your past or worrying about your future. Enjoy every moment of your life because you never know how your life will turn out to be.
10 You still have those old feelings for them, you can’t ever completely shake them loose of you, you will always have tenderness in your heart for them. -Lara Jean
