Favorite Dawn OPorter Quotes

1. "No one has ever stuck up for me like that before. Ever,' says Flo with her hand inside a crisp packet.‘Well, Samuel is a prick and you are my best friend.There is no way I'm letting a boy humiliate you like that. No way.'‘Sally would have given him a round of applause,' Flo says under her breath.‘Yeah, well, like I have said a million times, Sally is an idiot. And as soon as you pluck up the courage to tell her about us then the sooner you realise that friends are not supposed to treat each other that way.' I stuff six Wootsits into my mouth so I don't have to keep talking.‘I've never trusted anyone the way I trust you,' Flo says. ‘Well apart from Dad, obviously. You act like you care about me as much as you care about yourself sometimes.I can't get used to it." ~ Dawn O'Porter
2. "I just hug her, tell everything is fine, and walk with her to her house. It will be all OK in the end." ~ Dawn O'Porter
3. "I just sit there where she tells me to and don't make a fuss. If I answer back she gets loud and shouty. I don't want everyone seeing how badly she pushes me around.It's best just to take it.God knows what people mus think of me - some nervous, quiet drip with no opinion probably. It wouldn't be far off the truth I should have stood up to Sally years ago, but she'd make my life I did..." ~ Dawn O'Porter
4. "I scream and scream until my head hurts so much that I can't bear the sound of my own breath. There are people all around me. Someone is lifting me. I don't resist them at all." ~ Dawn O'Porter
5. "Why is someone telling you they loved you so awful?' I ask.‘It's not just that he told me he loved me, it's more about he expected me to say it back. I don't like feeling cornered into saying stuff I don't feel and doing stuff I don't want to do. And anyway, love at our age is ridiculous,' Renee says, tapping her toe in a puddle of water.Putting it like that makes more sense. People live whole lives together pretending to be in love. I guess Mum and Dad did that for most of their relationship. Then they realised they couldn't pretend any more but they were stuck with each other, and look where that got them. I've never really thought about love being such a big deal before. I just presumed that if someone was kind enough to say it to me, I would be kind enough to say it back, but maybe you shouldn't just say ‘I love you.' You have to mean it." ~ Dawn O'Porter
6. "We tell each other everything. You take the rap for bad things I do, we have this amazing time together and then all day in classes you ignore me like I don't exist. And I have to watch you and Sally together, and you licking her arse and not telling her about me. And when she says something mean to me you just stand there. I don't even answer back like I used to, I take it and you just stand there and let her speak to me the way she does. What about the fact that I am your best friend now? How do you think that feels, Flo? It feels HORRIBLE, that is how it feels. HORRIBLE.'I leave her standing in the rain. I deliberately go slowly so she can catch me up, but she doesn't. I get all the way home and she never comes after me." ~ Dawn O'Porter
7. "This one is OK,' I say quietly.‘OK, OK, OK. Everything is always just ‘OK'. It's so boring. Who wants to be ‘OK'?I sit for a moment and think about what she said. It doesn't take me long to realise that I, quite genuinely, just want to be OK." ~ Dawn O'Porter
8. "Because as much as I dislike her, I would prefer not to have an enemy." ~ Dawn O'Porter
9. "I'm hoping for an apology. An acknowledgement that she's made me feel like crap about myself again, but obviously I don't get anything like that out of her. She just sits in front of my mirror, rearranging her cleavage." ~ Dawn O'Porter
10. "Well, people who acknowledge their faults aren't so angry about them. Oh to be selfish, eh?'‘I think life would be easier if I was selfish.'‘No, it wouldn't. Not really. Those people aren't happy, they'll be on their death beds with little more than a life time of guilt and regret to think about. People like us die with a clear conscience, Flo. That's the best way to be. If you admit to where you go wrong at least you stand a chance of making it better.'I still wish I was selfish." ~ Dawn O'Porter
11. "I close my mouth and shut my eyes. I can feel the tears building the tears building up again. I beg myself not to cry, not here, not in assembly with Sally right next to me so desperate for me to crumble. I feel a finger tap on my left shoulder. Sally, to my right doesn't notice. I look back. It's Renee.‘Welcome back,' she mouths. Apparently not bothered that a teacher might see.I smile for the first time in nine days." ~ Dawn O'Porter
12. "My belly does a flip and I get goosebumps on my arms. I'm so used to people translating every nice thing I ever do as me trying to get something for myself that I just presume people think the worst of me the whole time." ~ Dawn O'Porter
13. "My arm is weighted by the huge pile of clothing she's hung over it. A moment of clarity comes over me. This isn't what friendship is about, I know that now." ~ Dawn O'Porter
14. "I feel like a waste of space. Like my whole life has been building up to the moment I failed. Like I don't have the energy to make up for what I've done, or to start again, or for anything. I feel like I want to be someone else.'Miss Anthony moves to Margaret's old seat and puts her arm around me.'You're not the tough little cookie everyone thinks you are, are you?" ~ Dawn O'Porter
15. "For a spilt second we stare at each other. I feel an off sense of relief in making that statement. My breath is broken, his face is still. I want to apologise but the words won't come. Instead I turn round and keep running home." ~ Dawn O'Porter
16. "Nothing. That's why it's funny. It's so bad I just think it's funny,' Renee says, tilting her head back so the chips don't fall out of her mouth.‘Do you really?'‘If I don't laugh about it what else will I do?'She doesn't actually laugh though. She falls back, throws chips into the air and tries to catch them in her mouth" ~ Dawn O'Porter
