Quotes by Susan Rigetti (?)

“I thought of you as my friend.” “We are not friends!” I shouted. “Friendship is built on honesty and trust. Friends don’t lie to each other. They don’t drag each other into schemes and scams, and they certainly don’t make them commit, what is this, fraud? I don’t even know how many terrible things you’ve done. No, Olesya. I am not your friend. And you have never been mine. You’re just a con artist and a liar and a scammer!”
― Susan Rigetti, Cover Story

“The chances of having a successful career in fashion journalism are so slim, but you don’t let that dissuade you. You know the odds aren’t in your favor, but you’re giving it your best shot anyway. The other interns have wealth, status, connections, trust funds. I mean, even I have those things—they’re practically table stakes for a career in journalism. Most people in your situation wouldn’t even bother, but you’re still giving it your all. I admire that. I wish I had your kind of courage.”
― Susan Rigetti, Cover Story

“It all hit me at once, everything I was carrying: the humiliation of the meeting, the loss of my scholarship, how I’d nearly failed out of NYU, the way that I felt completely and utterly lost and alone. I was crying so hard I didn’t even hear the door open and close.”
― Susan Rigetti, Cover Story
