“I think that fear keeps so many of us from being successful at things outside our realm of experience. We love to stay in our comfort zone, but the growth only comes when we wander outside of that zone.”
― Leslie Jordan, How Y'all Doing?: Misadventures and Mischief from a Life Well Lived

“Her death hit in waves. Not a flood, but water lapping steadily at her ankles. You could drown in two inches of water. Maybe grief was the same.”
― Brit Bennett, The Vanishing Half

“There is an old Southern expression: “I don’t got a dog in that fight.” But I immediately realized that was never going to be the case when it comes to standing up to racial injustice. We all “got a dog in that fight.”
― Leslie Jordan, How Y'all Doing?: Misadventures and Mischief from a Life Well Lived

“I define “depression,” but depression does not define me because you cannot define a person. Not with a single word, not with an entire book. Human beings defy definition. Yet the stigma surrounding mental illness makes some believe we can use it to define others, and it often deceives us into believing we must use it to define ourselves.”
― Kelly Jensen, [Don't] Call Me Crazy: 33 Voices Start the Conversation about Mental Health
