“I will never want to be the one a man chooses to be with because I'm the one he knows will always forgive him over and over again. God forbid I ever become that. God forbid a man ever stays with me because true love scares him. May I never be just a man's safe choice.”
C. JoyBell C.

Shannon L. Alder
“It doesn't matter if she was prettier than you when he decided to cheat. She was treated like trash just like you. He didn't commit to her. He didn't love her soul or cherished any of her accomplishments. He just liked her face and what is that? It is nothing. That is not who she is. He didn't give his heart or time to her. She was the one that was cheated because he stayed with you. You never lost him because he never made a commitment to her. So don't be so hard on the other woman. She was treated poorly also. She was nothing to him. She was only something superficial that he coveted. But loving her? Knowing her? Sharing his deepest feelings with her?... No! She could have been any pretty face. It was never her but a fantasy. He didn't even know her, but for her beauty. And what is beauty? Isn't that something you can buy at a plastic surgeon's office?”
Shannon L. Alder, The Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Bible

Philippe Besson
“This feeling of love, it transports me, it makes me happy. At the same time, it consumes me and makes me miserable, the way all impossible loves are miserable.”
Philippe Besson, Lie With Me

Philippe Besson
“He smiled so that I could take his smile with me.”

Angeline Boulley
“Kindness is something that seems small, Daunis, but it's like tossing a pebble into a pond and the ripples reach further than you thought.”
Angeline Boulley, Firekeeper’s Daughter
