“I don't believe in fate. I don't believe in cushioning your insecurities with a system of belief that tells you 'Don't worry. This may be your life but you're not in control. There is something or someone looking out for you -- it's already organised.' It's all chance and choice, which is far more frightening.”
― Maggie O'Farrell, After You'd Gone

“I am aware that I am less than some people prefer me to be, but most people are unaware that I am so much more than what they see.”
