You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
But still, like air, I’ll rise.”

“It's your life. You're the one that has to live it. If you make the wrong choices at least you know they were yours.”

“An introvert may feel asocial when pressured to go to a party that doesn’t interest her. But for her, the event does not promise meaningful interaction. In fact, she knows that the party will leave her feeling more alone and alienated. Her social preference may be to stay home and reflect on a conversation with a friend, call that friend, and come to an understanding that is meaningful to her. Or she might indulge in the words of a favorite author, feeling a deep connection with a person she has never met. From the perspective of a partygoer, this introvert may appear to be asocial, when, in fact, the introvert is interacting in a much different way.”
― Laurie Helgoe, Introvert Power: Why Your Inner Life Is Your Hidden Strength
