"Ever have a friend date or marry a walking red flag and all you can do is nod and smile while they talk about them because you know they'd flip their shit if you voiced your concern? That's what reading this book is like."

“Real power doesn’t come from having a million followers, good hair, a Louis Vuitton purse, a new car, a new home, a title, a partner, or anything that can be weighed, measured, or acquired. Real power is the thing you’ve always had inside you. Real power doesn’t need to be demonstrated or boasted. Real power is the ability to be in your skin, to know who you are, to know you will always be okay. Real power comes from your gut and your heart and your courage and your bravery and your love. Real power can never be taken away from you and never lost once it’s found.”

“Disappoint other people with your no; don’t disappoint yourself with a yes you’ll later resent.”

― Quit Like a Woman: The Radical Choice to Not Drink in a Culture Obsessed with Alcohol
“Spending a night out drinking is akin to dismantling every piece of protection we have—our cognition, our decision making, our reaction time, our memory, our standards, our voice. If we thought about alcohol in this way—as something that undermines our collective momentum and personal agency and vitality and self-worth—what would that mean for us? What if we all rejected the poison—then what? I’ll tell you what: world domination, bitches.”
