“If a writer's work lifts you, remain loyal to that experience, even after you've grown beyond it. The book did what it did at the time that you needed it. Don't put it down for not being able to grow with you. It did its job.”
― Bridgette Hayden

“Some tales infiltrate your culture for a reason, disguised as child’s play, to bypass your defenses. To help you. Your own story, no doubt, will help many when it is revealed. My point is simple. It is best to accept, when reality isn’t what you think it should be. Accept, Sonny. That doesn’t mean settling for what you don’t like. Change it by all means, just don’t let it scare you so badly that you get stuck in a terrible place. The kind of acceptance I’m speaking of lets you move on.” -- Varce to Sonny, in Sonny Preyer book 1”
