“Family is not just about who you appear to belong to, or what it says on your birth certificate, or who you look like, or even what they’d find if they studied your DNA. Family is found anywhere you are loved and cared for. That might mean friends or foster parents, a group or even a charity. What matters far more — so much more than chemistry or ancestry — is that precious bond, that reassurance that they won’t let you down.”
― Marina Chapman, The Girl With No Name: The Incredible True Story of a Child Raised by Monkeys

“I had only two concerns: to satisfy my basic needs and to satisfy my curiosity — the same simple life that the monkeys had.”
― Marina Chapman, The Girl With No Name: The Incredible True Story of a Child Raised by Monkeys

“Make-up can only make you look pretty on the outside but it doesn't help if you're ugly on the inside. Unless you eat the make-up.”

“We judge others instantly by their clothes, their cars, their appearance, their race, their education, their social status. The list is endless. What gets me is that most people decide who another person is before they have even spoken to them. What's even worse is that these same people decide who someone else is, and don't even know who they are themselves.”
