“Whether it’s men, women—it doesn’t really matter. The human race is filled with passion and lust. And to coin terms like heterosexuality, homosexuality or even bisexuality makes no sense to me. You are human. You love who you love. You fuck who you fuck. That should be enough—no labels. No stigmas. Nothing. Just be to be. But life isn’t that kind. People will always find things to hate.”
― Krista Ritchie, Kiss the Sky

“The monsters in our imagination are often worse than those in reality.”
― Ana Huang, Twisted Hate

“The stars and moon had done him no justice, and I resented them for that.”
― Jennifer Hartmann, Older

“The part of me that could leave anyone and any place behind and never look back activated just for her. My heart shut off. All attachments I had to her, every bond she’d ever been given was pulled from the root. My defenses wrapped around me like an impenetrable protective shield, and I felt myself go eerily calm. I knew this was the last time I’d ever see her. I wouldn’t miss her. I wouldn’t grieve her. I would never look for her.”
― Abby Jimenez, Just for the Summer
