“I make the best use of what’s in my power, and take the rest as it happens.”
― J.T. Geissinger, Carnal Urges

“Whoever said grief was the price of love was a liar. Grief was the interest. The tax. The additional, invisible cost added to love that was only collected in death. It was everything you never expected to pay and more than you ever thought you could owe.”
― Rebecca Sharp, Beholden

“Just remember that whenever things feel bleak, all situations are temporary. It’s not your circumstance that determines your worth, it’s how you rise from the ashes after everything burns.” 24 JAMES Ileave Wendy at her house with barely more than a goodbye, impatience snapping at my insides like a rubber band with every wasted second.”
― Emily McIntire, Hooked

“If you have one parent who loves you, even if they can't buy you clothes, they're so poor and they make all kinds of mistakes and maybe sometimes they even give you awful advice, but never for one moment do you doubt their love for you--if you have this, you have incredibly good fortune.

If you have two parents who love you? You have won life's Lotto.

If you do not have parents, or if the parents you have are so broken and so, frankly, terrible that they are no improvement over nothing, this is fine.

It's not ideal because it's harder without adults who love you more than they love themselves. But harder is just harder, that's all.”
