“You have been my friend. That in itself is a tremendous thing. I wove my webs for you because I liked you. After all, what's a life, anyway? We're born, we live a little while, we die.

That’s not blaming the victim; that’s trying to prevent more victims.”
― Emily Yoffe

“No matter how bad things are, you can always make things worse.”
