“I will surpass myself in waves, ah, Lord, and may everything come and fall upon me, even the incomprehension of myself at certain white moments because all I have to do is comply with myself and then nothing will block my path until death-without-fear, from any struggle or rest I will rise up as strong and beautiful as a young horse.”
― Clarice Lispector, Near to the Wild Heart

“Character — the willingness to accept responsibility for one's own life — is the source from which self-respect springs.”
― Joan Didion, On Self-Respect

“It is quite possible to leave your home for a walk in the early morning air and return a different person – beguiled, enchanted.”
― Rhonda Byrne, The Magic
