“You must walk alone to find your soul.” (p. 118)
There are any number of memorable quotation throughout the book. Some of Melinda descriptions are her throat, lips, and inability/lack of desire to speak certainly stand out in our minds.
However, some of my favorite quotations in Laurie Halse Anderson's Speak come from Mr. Freeman, the art teacher. In many ways, Mr. Freeman says and represents all the things Melinda wants to do and be. His optimism and "sunshine" help pull Melinda from the brink. Among his more memorable lines.
