“Trying to skirt risk is how we squeeze out all the fun and stunt the most wondrous gift: imagination.”
Kristen Lee, EdD, LICSW, Worth the Risk: How to Microdose Bravery to Grow Resilience, Connect More, and Offer Yourself to the World

“Evil is only an option for the powerful and a suicide attempt for the powerless. That's why it's often a misconception to describe a powerless person as a good person.”
Serhat Beyaz KOROGLU
