“Nothing lasts forever. Not the good things, not the bad. So just find what makes you happy, and do it for as long as you can.”
― Ashley Poston, The Seven Year Slip

“Sometimes the people you loved left you halfway through a story. Sometimes they left you without a goodbye. And, sometimes, they stayed around in little ways. In the memory of a musical. In the smell of their perfume. In the sound of the rain, and the itch for adventure, and the yearning for that liminal space between one airport terminal and the next. I hated her for leaving, and I loved her for staying as long as she could. And I would never wish this pain on anyone.”
― Ashley Poston, The Seven Year Slip

“A person’s troubles are not measured by the size of those troubles, but by how much they weigh on the individual carrying them.”
― Jessica George, Maame

“A man doesn't have to be unkind or unlikable to have enemies. Sometimes, it's good people who are hated for who they are.”
― Fonda Lee, The Jade Setter of Janloon
