“Qur'an 24:63: "Only those are believers, who believe in God and His Messenger. when they are with him on a matter requiring collective action, they do not depart until they have asked for his leave; those who ask for thy leave are those who believe in God and His Messenger. so when they ask for thy leave, for some business of theirs, give leave to those of them whom thou wilt, and ask God for their forgiveness: for God is Oft- Forgiving, Most Merciful.”

“John Wayne Gacy is obsessively fond of defending his innocence, which is imaginary. On March 12, 1980, he was convicted in Chicago of killing thirty-three boys. The murders took place between 1972 and 1978, when he was caught and arrested. No one else in America has ever been convicted of killing so many people. Twenty-seven of the bodies were buried in a crawl space beneath the house where Gacy lived,”
― Alec Wilkinson, Conversations With a Killer

“He’d lie to you about what time of day it is—just for the practice.” And indeed, a close study of Trump’s actions over the past few years reveals a man addicted to deception, a man who invested like a fool, a man who shaved from deals and bled failing companies of cash so that he could live with absurd excess, a man who borrowed huge amounts from credulous banks and investors, a man who not only is not now a billionaire but never had $1 billion or $500 million or—very possibly—even $100 million and who has been strapped since 1987. Donald Trump is not just some cartoon character, a guy with a comb-over and a press agent and a board”

“Harajuku poster boy.”
― C.J. Archer, The Paranormal 13

“So much for a level head. I opened my mouth to say something, but nothing came. Instead, to my horror, I threw my arms around him and whispered, "I've missed you so much." He wrapped his arms around me, leaning close to my ear. "Not as much as I've missed you." I felt like I was in the arms of someone who loved me and would go to the ends of the earth to protect me. His breath tickled my skin. "Do you actually remember me, my beautiful?" Before I could answer, I heard my parents and friends gasping in surprise. My face warmed, and I let go of Cliff and then turned around. I couldn't explain why I'd leaped into a stranger's arms. I only knew it was the right response.”
― C.J. Archer, The Paranormal 13

“What exactly were you trying to do?" I asked him, as my heart rate returned to normal. He looked into my eyes with his chocolate eyes and I started to melt. "I didn't get to see you today and I just wanted to get a glimpse of you. I just thought I would see you sleep for a few minutes.”
― C.J. Archer, The Paranormal 13

“Caitlin Paine always dreaded her first day at a new school. There were the big things, like meeting new friends, the new teachers, learning new hallways. And there were the small things, like getting a new locker, the smell of a new place, the sounds it made. More than anything, she dreaded the stares. She felt that everyone in a new place always stared at her. All she wanted was anonymity. But it never seemed meant to be.”
― Morgan Rice, Turned

“She looked up. Looking out at the sea of new faces, she felt alone. Not because she was the only white girl—she actually preferred that. Some of her closest friends at other schools had been black, Spanish, Asian, Indian—and some of her meanest frenemies had been white.”
― Morgan Rice, Turned

“think it's risk; the risk that they may not love you as much as you love them. It's fire; burning but purifying, making both of you better for having survived it. I believe it's about compromise; finding a middle ground where two people can be together and still be separate, be in love, but still love themselves. I know this is love because it's what I feel, what I want, and what I'd do to be with you. What I'm not going to do, is give up just because you ask it of me.”
― Amy Sumida, Green Tea and Black Death

“Min Yoongi
You were brought into this world in 1993 you didn’t know what you’d grow to be. At that time I was around 6 years old, and I came to learn my life would not be so easy. For 27 years I’d walk alone broken by every stone life threw at me. On the other side of the world you’d also take that beating. I’d search this world high and low for some kind of serenity. Who knew that boy in Daegu would write the peace I was seeking. The link that would bring us together is entwined by the millions. It led me to Agust D in the middle of August. Not being funny that’s the honest truth. I deciphered your words and found my story written in them. Though we walked down different paths I saw myself in you. Everything I felt inside came out through the ink from your pen.”
― Mandy Darling, Map Of My Soul

“Jung Hoseok
You’re smile can cure me of any sadness. There’s something about you that just glows. I was walking around feeling hopeless, and you gave me a world of HOPE. I sometimes wonder if there’s any pain behind that smile, and how much it must hurt to always be upbeat. If there is I’ll never know as you cheerfully shine down on us- just so we can have hope on the street.”
― Mandy Darling, Map Of My Soul

“Tell me your story. I want to hear your voice, and I want to hear your conviction. No matter who you are, where you’re from, your skin color, gender identity: speak yourself.”
― Mandy Darling, Map Of My Soul

“Have you ever stared at yourself in the mirror, and your eyes act like an out of focused camera? You keep zooming in on your face, and out again like you can’t believe you’re you. I get so lost in my own reflection my face starts looking warped. I feel as though I’m watching my life flash through my brain like a VHS being re-winded, and I can’t believe I’m me. All my imperfections are amplified back at me, and I know I can’t open my eyes as someone else. I feel ugly. Not the kind of ugly that someone feels because they don’t think they are beautiful, but the ugly that resonates from experiences. Remembering all the bad shit that you have done or that was done to you, and seeing the wounds of the past re-open through your imperfections.”
― Mandy Darling, Here it is...my healing

“SUGAr Run your fingers across those piano keys sing to me about the times you’ve cried. Tell me your pain, and show me how you and I are both alike. Stare into my eyes with yours give me that smile you like to hide. Take my hand, fill my fingers with yours inside of mine. Pull me close into your arms like a weighted blanket to calm my anxious mind. We can talk until there are no words left or sit there in silence if you’d like. I know sometimes you might feel broken you don’t always have to act so strong. You can be weak, you’re only human”

“It’s hard when the people who should love you the most, the people who should put you above themselves, don’t. You’re left with this emptiness inside you that threatens to swallow you whole if you lower your guard and let someone in. So you keep up those walls, fortifying them with steel just to keep yourself from drowning before you’ve even had a chance to live the way you were supposed to. No longer are you capable of becoming that sweet and innocent girl you could have been. Now you’re a bitter woman who snarls at the thought of weakness.”
― D.E. Chapman, Bleeding Red
