― Virginia Woolf

“When someone shows you who they are believe them the first time.”
― Maya Angelou

“I like to have a martini,
Two at the very most.
After three I'm under the table,
after four I'm under my host.”

“The facts of his existence are plain. I know that he will never silence those unspeakable voices. He heard how people killed, and how they died and their voices infected him, coursed through his body, poisoned him. He didn't know how to turn off the noise, or turn the hate back out onto the world like the rest of us. He turned it on himself. You could see that from the scars on him.”
― Meg Rosoff, How I Live Now
