“My life, which seems so simple and monotonous, is really a complicated affair of cafés where they like me and cafés where they don't, streets that are friendly, streets that aren't, rooms where I might be happy, rooms where I shall never be, looking-glasses I look nice in, looking-glasses I don't, dresses that will be lucky, dresses that won't, and so on.”
― Jean Rhys, Good Morning, Midnight

“Even if we can’t change the big picture, our choices can alter the details. That’s how we rebel against destiny.”
― Rick Riordan, The Sword of Summer

“Every man I meet wants to protect me. I can't figure out what from.”
― Mae West

“Something came out from my heart into my throat and then into my eyes.”
― Jean Rhys, Voyage in the Dark
