“SLIPS ARE TOTALLY NORMAL. WHEN you have a slip, it’s just that. A slip. It doesn’t define you. It doesn’t make you a failure. The most important thing is that you don’t let that slip become a slide,”
― Jennette McCurdy, I'm Glad My Mom Died

“I don’t know why an individual has to be treated as less-than and strive to fit society’s standards when it’s the people who denigrate
others who are the real problem. That frustrates me. That I can’t step out of this frame, that I still feel inferior when I meet someone supposedly superior to me, and that I feel confident and comfortable when I meet someone supposedly inferior – I
absolutely loathe that about myself.”
― Baek Se-hee, I Want to Die But I Want to Eat Tteokpokki

“I am the sky and the power of every storm that has ever been. I am infinite.”
― Rebecca Yarros, Fourth Wing

“But books are different. I often look for books that are like medicine, that fit my situation and my thoughts, and I read them over and over again until the pages are tattered, underlining everything and still the book will have something to give me. Books never tire of me. And in time they present a solution, quietly waiting until I am fully healed. That's one of the nicest things about books.”
