“Perhaps when we find ourselves wanting everything, it is because we are dangerously close to wanting nothing.”

“People cheat because something is lacking in them—connection, empathy, good character. Cheating is about entitlement. You might actually be a crappy spouse, but you did not make your spouse cheat.”
― Tracy Schorn, Leave a Cheater, Gain a Life: The Chump Lady's Survival Guide

“You might have to wait years for them to nosedive, but they will. These are people who have lousy life skills. The older they get, the less they sparkle. It becomes harder to operate on pure entitlement, and it all catches up to them—the debt, the lack of investment in relationships, the booze. Whatever it is, chances are they aren’t going to wise up, get healthy, and face it. They’ll use their same old crappy manipulations with the same old crappy results. Only you won’t be around this time to pin it on. Their new soul mate gets that honor.”
― Tracy Schorn, Leave a Cheater, Gain a Life: The Chump Lady's Survival Guide

“I have the choice of being constantly active and happy or introspectively passive and sad. Or I can go mad by ricocheting in between.”
