“I’m passionate about being good at things.”
― Ann Liang, If You Could See the Sun

“Why does anyone want anyone else? [...] We do not love because people deserve it - nor would I want to be loved because I was the most deserving of some list of candidates. I want to be loved for my worst self as well as my best. I want to be forgiven my flaws.”
― Holly Black, The Prisoner’s Throne

“The sun is bursting through my chest, breaking past my lips. It's my life, I think with amazement, and it's beautiful, and I can paint it any color I want to. Right now it's drenched in the brighest shade of gold. I have the brush in my hands, and the canvas is mine. It's all mine.”
― Ann Liang, I Am Not Jessica Chen

“Sometimes I forget that in the bigger scheme of things, it's okay to not be the best at everything. To be surrounded by people who can solve problems you can't, who are talented in different ways, who will go on to change the world.”
― Ann Liang, I Am Not Jessica Chen
