Mitch Albom
“If the only thing wrong with mosques, Lent, chanting, ?Mecca, confession, or reincarnation is that they're not yours- well maybe the problem is "YOU”
Mitch Albom , Have a Little Faith: a True Story

Susan Cain
“We don’t ask why God chose as his prophet a stutterer with a public speaking phobia. But we should. The book of Exodus is short on explication, but its stories suggest that introversion plays yin to the yang of extroversion; that the medium is not always the message; and that people followed Moses because his words were thoughtful, not because he spoke them well.”
Susan Cain, Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking

Kristin Hannah
“That was the thing about best friends. Like sisters and mothers, they could piss you off and make you cry and break your heart, but in the end, when the chips were down, they were there, making you laugh even in your darkest hours.”
Kristen Hannah, Firefly Lane

Susan Cain
“Introverts are drawn to the inner world of thought and feeling, said Jung, extroverts to the external life of people and activities. Introverts focus on the meaning they make of the events swirling around them; extroverts plunge into the events themselves. Introverts recharge their batteries by being alone; extroverts need to recharge when they don’t socialize enough.”
Susan Cain, Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking

Kristin Hannah
“That was what a best friend did: hold up a mirror and show you your heart.”
Kristin Hannah, Firefly Lane
