Alexandra Elle
“Start ignoring people who threaten your joy. Literally, ignore them. Say nothing. Don't invite any parts of them into your space.”
alex elle

Lori Gottlieb
“Most big transformations come about from the hundreds of tiny, almost imperceptible, steps we take along the way.”
Lori Gottlieb, Maybe You Should Talk to Someone: A Therapist, Her Therapist, and Our Lives Revealed

Maggie Nelson
“A day or two after my love pronouncement, now feral with vulnerability, I sent you the passage from Roland Barthes by Roland Barthes in which Barthes describes how the subject who utters the phrase “I love you” is like “the Argonaut renewing his ship during its voyage without changing its name.” Just as the Argo’s parts may be replaced over time but the boat is still called the Argo, whenever the lover utters the phrase “I love you,” its meaning must be renewed by each use, as “the very task of love and of language is to give to one and the same phrase inflections which will be forever new.”
Maggie Nelson, The Argonauts

Clarice Lispector
“Whoever wishes may accompany me: the road is long, it's painful but it's lived.”
Clarice Lispector, The Stream of Life

Olivia Laing
“Sometimes, all you need is permission to feel. Sometimes, what causes the most pain is actually the attempt to resist feeling, or the shame that grows up like thorns around it.”
Olivia Laing, The Lonely City: Adventures in the Art of Being Alone
