“In each of us lie good and bad, light and dark, art and pain, choice and regret, cruelty and sacrifice. We’re each of us our own chiaroscuro, our own bit of illusion fighting to emerge into something solid, something real. We’ve got to forgive ourselves that. I must remember to forgive myself. Because there is a lot of grey to work with. No one can live in the light all the time.”
― Libba Bray

“Without music, life would be a mistake.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche, Twilight of the Idols

“A woman is like a tea bag; you never know how strong it is until it's in hot water.”
― Eleanor Roosevelt
