Mike Binder
“Anger and resentment can stop you in your tracks. That's what I know now. It needs nothing to burn but the air and the life that it swallows and smothers. It's real, though - the fury, even when it isn't. It can change you... turn you... mold you and shape you into
something you're not. The only upside to anger, then... is the person you become. Hopefully someone that wakes up one day and realizes they're not afraid to take the journey, someone that knows that the truth is, at best, a partially told story. That anger, like growth, comes in spurts and fits, and in its wake, leaves a new chance at acceptance, and the promise of calm. Then again, what do I know? I'm only a child.”
― Mike Binder

Anthony T. Hincks
“God gave man a chance to be a part of the universe. Man took that chance and made himself apart from God's universe.”
― Anthony T. Hincks

Augusten Burroughs
“What’s painful and wonderful about loving somebody is loving their small things, like the way he is able to smile when he sips his wine, the way his hands fall down at his sides, fingers slightly cupped, or the way he is conducting the orchestra on the radio. Or now, the way he is lighting candles, just now this one in front of me. This is the one he lit first, actually. The one in front of me. Even though there was one on the way, he passed that one, lit it next.”
― Augusten Burroughs, Magical Thinking: True Stories

Katharyn Blair
“I don't know what to say - I don't have an explanation I can use. I love you is the only thing that makes sense, and it's the one thing I can't say.”
― Katharyn Blair, Unchosen

Hugh Mackay
“When books sweep the world with characters and plots that seem unutterably grim...you have to ask whether we willingly incorperate such material into our lives because we need more shadows, clouds, drama, or perhaps because vicarious exposure to such material equips us, psychologically, for potential exposure to the real thing. [p35, Chapter 1 Taking the rough with the smooth]”
― Hugh Mackay, The Kindness Revolution: How we can restore hope, rebuild trust and inspire optimism
