“It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.”
― Andre Gide, Autumn Leaves

“The way you are doesn’t have to make sense to anyone else.
You are exactly how you’re supposed to be.

YOU ARE PERFECT.

And you might not have met them yet, but there are people who are going to love you BECAUSE of the way you are.”
― Lynn Painter, Fake Skating (dedication)

“Everyone has that moment I think, the moment when something so momentous happens that it rips your very being into small pieces. And then you have to stop. For a long time, you gather your pieces. And it takes such a very long time, not to fit them back together, but to assemble them in a new way, not necessarily a better way. More, a way you can live with until you know for certain that this piece should go there, and that one there.”
― Kathleen Glasgow, Girl in Pieces
