“I need to make money. I need to write today. I need to clean the bathroom. I need to eat something. I need to quit sugar. I need to cut my hair. I need to call Verizon. I need to savor the moment. I need to find the library card. I need to learn to meditate. I need to try harder. I need to get that stain out. I need to find better health insurance. I need to discover my signature scent. I need to strengthen and tone. I need to be present in the moment. I need to learn French. I need to be easier on myself. I need to buy organizational storage units. I need to call back. I need to develop a relationship with a God of my understanding. I need to buy eye cream. I need to live up to my potential. I need to lie back down.”
― Coco Mellors, Cleopatra and Frankenstein

“I can say it was gorgeous now, my harm, because it belonged to no one else. To be a dam for damage. My shittyness will not enter the world, I thought, and quickly became my own hero.”
― Ocean Vuong, Time is a Mother

“If video games make you stupid, then what do mobile phones do to you?”
― Mieko Kawakami, Ms Ice Sandwich

“Maybe, like you, I was one of those people who loves the world most when I’m rock-bottom in my fast car going nowhere.”
