“Problem is, while the lie may be sweet as it falls from your lips, the feeling in your gut is always putridly sour. And almost always bang-on.”
Caz Frear, Sweet Little Lies

Cheryl Strayed
“Nobody will protect you from your suffering. You can't cry it away or eat it away or starve it away or walk it away or punch it away or even therapy it away. It's just there, and you have to survive it. You have to endure it. You have to live through it and love it and move on and be better for it and run as far as you can in the direction of your best and happiest dreams across the bridge that was built by your own desire to heal.”
Cheryl Strayed, Tiny Beautiful Things: Advice on Love and Life from Dear Sugar

Morgan  Parker
“All my friends are changing religions and getting laid. I have been too patient.”
Morgan Parker, There Are More Beautiful Things Than Beyonce

Cheryl Strayed
“Don't lament so much about how your career is going to turn out. You don't have a career. You have a life. Do the work. Keep the faith. Be true blue. You are a writer because you write. Keep writing and quit your bitching. Your book has a birthday. You don't know what it is yet.”
Cheryl Strayed, Tiny Beautiful Things: Advice on Love and Life from Dear Sugar

Anthony Bourdain
“Skills can be taught. Character you either have or you don't have.”
Anthony Bourdain, Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly
