Sophia Amoruso
“During the miserable cab ride home, I realized that I’d put so much energy into thinking about what I didn’t want to happen that I’d caused that exact thing to happen. I conjured that bitch.”
Sophia Amoruso, #Girlboss

Madeleine de Scudéry
“Love is a capricious creature which desires everything and can be contented with almost nothing.”
Madeleine de Scudéry

Barbara Kingsolver
“That night marks my life's dark center, the moment when growing up ended and the long downward slope toward death began. The wonder to me now is that I thought myself worth saving...I reached out and clung for life with my good left hand like a claw, grasping at moving legs to raise myself from the dirt. Desperate to save myself in a river of people saving themselves. And if they chanced to look down and see me struggling underneath them, they saw that even the crooked girl believed her own life was precious. That is what it means to be a beast in the kingdom.”
Barbara Kingsolver, The Poisonwood Bible

Phyllis Rose
“Some kinds of literature demand to be treated respectfully. The obligation is on the reader to live up to them and not so much on them to entertain the reader.”
Phyllis Rose, The Shelf: From LEQ to LES: Adventures in Extreme Reading

Jessica Valenti
“The less obvious hurdle is that of preparing parents emotionally and putting forward realistic images of parenthood and motherhood. There also needs to be some sort of acknowledgement that not everyone should parent - when parenting is a given, it's not fully considered or thought out, and it gives way too easily to parental ambivalence and unhappiness.”
Jessica Valenti, Why Have Kids?: A New Mom Explores the Truth About Parenting and Happiness
