“My first prayer was into a purple plastic toy megaphone. I even went into the closet to do it in case God was shy like me.”
― Cole Arthur Riley, This Here Flesh: Spirituality, Liberation, and the Stories That Make Us

“I love you Josiah
I’m sorry I’m still broken
but I could still make you happy.
Let’s pour one out
to knowing
not hoping”
― Lana Del Rey, Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass

“Where shyness should be shown, it should be shown. Or there will be a situation where you will regret it later.”
― Sithi Fathima

“Surely in this vale of tears we call life, the ill, the halt, and the lame find it curious that some people with constitutions like bull calves sometimes consider their good health and strength a curse rather than a blessing. It can be, though. In fistfights, even beaten senseless, we don't fall down nearly soon enough; the joys of drug abuse don't seem to take their proper toll; and, sometimes, when we try to drink ourselves to death, we fail miserably. Miserably.”
― James Crumley, Dancing Bear
