“Everything that dies never really goes. In little ways, it all stays." Not in the horrific way Lee wrote it. Not with the moaning ghosts and terrifying poltergeists and living dead, but in the way the sun came back around again, the way flowers browned and became dirt and new seeds bloomed the next spring. Everything died, but pieces of it remained.”
― Ashley Poston, The Dead Romantics

“You're becoming. You're in the process of becoming. You just don't know what yet.
That felt right. It felt okay to stop there, for now, as we walked through the future.”
― David Levithan, You Know Me Well

“Entire lives aren't lessons, but there are lessons in lives.”
― Adam Silvera, They Both Die at the End

“Feelings are relative. And at the root, they’re all the same, even if they grow from different experiences and exist on different scales.”
― Becky Chambers, The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet
