“I think if I gave you my heart, you would treat it tenderly.”

“Why is straight the default? Everyone should have to declare one way or another, and it shouldn't be this big awkward thing whether you're straight, gay, bi, or whatever. I'm just saying.”
― Becky Albertalli, Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda

“Devon was even more of a piece of shit trailer trash than I was, but holy shit did I love him. Like, heart completely consumed, wanted him for life, ride or die type of loved him. He was mine and I was his, and even though we fucked shit up more often than not, I couldn’t imagine going through this clusterfuck of a life without him now.”
― Nordika Night, Lot 62

“There are many people in this world — some of
them are good, and some of them are bad. But
there are even more who can't be simply classified
as 'good' or 'bad'. They may not think in the same
way you think, or walk the same path you walk. Just
like the case with Yu Ai and Yuan Ying - even the
same set of sword arts looks slightly different in
different people's hands. Don't deny others just
because they are different from you. Like how the
ocean is capable of holding water from thousands of
rivers, a person should be forgiving and tolerant to
diversity, and it is the same for practicing martial
arts. People who are narrow-minded can only
achieve so much. Even if they do reach the summit,
they cannot stay there for long.”
― Meng Xi Shi, 千秋 [Qian Qiu]
