“I have always loved the feel of books, the way they give a literal weight to words and make of them a sacred object I can hold. I'd made my own books as soon as I'd learned to write, tying sheets of construction paper together with ribbon to make a spine, then inscribing my name on the frontispiece in the most ceremonial script I could manage.”
Nathasha Trethewey

Glennon Doyle
“Put pen to paper.
The people who build their truest, most beautiful lives usually do. It's hard to jump from dreaming to doing. As every architect or designer knows, here is a critical step between vision and reality. Before imagination becomes three-dimensional, it usually needs to become two-dimensional.
[...]
Let's look at what we've written and decide that these are not pipe dreams; these are our marching orders. These are the blueprints for our lives.”
Glennon Doyle, Untamed: Stop Pleasing, Start Living / A Toolkit for Modern Life
