“As a woman, she’d had to work her ass off to get to where she was now, to be taken as seriously as her male coworkers. As a Black woman, even more so. She’d had to tolerate the pats on the butt, the dinner-and-drinks invitations, the blatant requests for sex. On more than one occasion, she’d had the door slammed in her face at a listing appointment or a showing because of the color of her skin. And she had never let it grind her down. If anything, it had made her all the more determined.”
― Lisa Gray, To Die For

“But it’s crazy what a little self-love will do. It will make you bet on yourself each time.”

“I’m secure that as long as I’m betting on myself, I’m always going to win.”

“Even as you’re telling the world you don’t need a thing, you can never forget there are certain people who you are always going to need on your side. Don’t try to run the game on them. Always have a select few you remain honest and humble with.”
