One of the things I love about books is being able to define and condense certain portions of a character's life into chapters. It's intriguing, because you can't do this with real life. You can't just end a chapter, then skip the things you don't want to live through, only to open it up to a chapter that better suits your mood. Life can't be divided into chapters.. only minutes. The events of your life are all crammed together one minute right after the other without any time lapses or blank pages or chapter breaks because no matter what happens life just keeps going and moving forward and words keep flowing and truths keep spewing whether you like it or not and life never lets you pause and just catch your fucking breath. I need one of those chapter breaks. I just want to catch my breath, but I have no idea how. Colleen Hoover
About This Quote

A quote is a short saying or sentence that is often attributed to a person, but in most cases the exact wording of the quote is unknown. This quote by Stephen King is an example of a famous known quote. This story started off when I was in the shower one day when I heard something under the door. It was my dog eating something. I went out to see what it was and my dog was eating some kind of peanut butter crackers with some kind of little thing in them.

I looked down at my dog's mouth trying to figure out what she was doing, why she would be eating things like that, so I looked at her mouth and realized that she had these big black things around her mouth. It turns out I was wrong about how much she knew about normal food, because eventually one of those little black things came out of her mouth and she ate it. I screamed at her, "What are you doing?" She just looked at me with this pained look on her face as if to say, "What are you talking about?" I sat there for a second trying to figure out what to do next.

What were these crackers anyway? That seemed important, but not as important as why she would be eating them. Eventually I decided to take the crackers away from her because if she ate anything else out of the box, which there were plenty more, then she might get sick. She wasn't eating anything else though so eventually I gave up on trying to make sense of what was going on here and left her alone with the box full of crackers.I thought about this for a second then got up and went into the kitchen where I had recently made some peanut butter cookies.

The box said they were for dogs, but they were really good too so I took one out and put it on my bedside table for later. After giving my dog the second cookie for dinner (she likes them too), she got up to lie down so I decided to go back downstairs for some peace and quiet again. As soon as I got downstairs though, there was this other sound coming from behind me so I turned around quickly only to realize that it was just this noise coming from outside my house which sounded like something moving along metallic surfaces like tin cans or buckets or something like that.

Eventually it stopped but then I could hear things moving outside again so then it stopped again until eventually it never stopped again which made me think that maybe this thing outside my house wasn
