Rin’s Quotes

“A salad fork can be used to pierce a crisp bed of romaine lettuce just as easily as it could be used to stab someone’s eye. There is no bad magic or good magic; there is just magic. It is a natural part of our world and a natural part of each of us.”
― Fire Lyte, The Dabbler's Guide to Witchcraft: Seeking an Intentional Magical Path

“Some people might think that this “furiously happy” movement is just an excuse to be stupid and irresponsible and invite a herd of kangaroos over to your house without telling your husband first because you suspect he would say no since he’s never particularly liked kangaroos. And that would be ridiculous because no one would invite a herd of kangaroos into their house. Two is the limit. I speak from personal experience. My husband, Victor, says that “none” is the new limit. I say he should have been clearer about that before I rented all those kangaroos.”
― Jenny Lawson, Furiously Happy: A Funny Book About Horrible Things
