“Maybe there were people who lived those lives. Maybe this girl was one of them. But what about the rest of us? What about the nobodies and the nothings, the invisible girls? We learn to hold our heads as if we wear crowns. We learn to wring magic from the ordinary. That was how you survived when you weren’t chosen, when there was no royal blood in your veins. When the world owed you nothing, you demanded something of it anyway.”
― Leigh Bardugo, Crooked Kingdom

“Some people care too much. I think it's called love.”
― A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh

“He - and if there is a God, I am convinced he is a he, because no woman could or would ever fuck things up this badly.”
