Elizabeth Bishop
“The art of losing isn't hard to master;
so many things seemed filled with the intent
to be lost that their loss is no disaster”
Elizabeth Bishop, The Complete Poems 1927-1979

Stieg Larsson
“Always retain the ability to walk away, without sentimentality, from a situation that felt unmanageable. That was a basic rule of survival. Don't lift a finger for a lost cause.”
Stieg Larsson, The Girl Who Played with Fire

Ibram X. Kendi
“To know the past is to know the present. To know the present it to know yourself.”
Ibram X. Kendi, Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You

Roxane Gay
“We don’t all have to believe in the same feminism. Feminism can be pluralistic so long as we respect the different feminisms we carry with us, so long as we give enough of a damn to try to minimize the fractures among us.”
Roxane Gay, Bad Feminist: Essays

Lori Gottlieb
“Above all, I didn't want to fall into the trap that Buddhists call idiot compassion - an apt phrase, given John's worldview. In idiot compassion, you avoid rocking the boat to spare people's feelings, even though the boat needs rocking and your compassion ends up being more harmful than your honesty. People do this with teenagers, spouses, addicts, even themselves. Its opposite is wise compassion, which means caring about the person but also giving him or her a loving truth bomb when needed.”
Lori Gottlieb, Maybe You Should Talk to Someone: A Therapist, Her Therapist, and Our Lives Revealed
