“I am slowly learning to never accept less than I deserve. Deciding how much I deserve is another matter. I wish someone would say to me, "I will never look up or down at you.”
― Marlowe Granados, Happy Hour

“What we notice in stories is the nearness of the wound to the gift.”
― Jeanette Winterson, Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal?

“And the people I have hurt, the mistakes I have made, the damage to myself and others, wasn’t poor judgement; it was the place where love had hardened into loss.”
― Jeanette Winterson, Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal?

“Time has no meaning, space and place have no meaning, on this journey. All times can be inhabited, all places visited. In a single day the mind can make a millpond of the oceans. Some people who have never crossed the land they were born on have travelled all over the world. The journey is not linear, it is always back and forth, denying the calender, the wrinkles and lines of the body. The self is not contained in any moment or any place, but it is only in the intersection of moment and place that the self might, for a moment, be seen vanishing through a door, which disappears at once.”
― Jeanette Winterson, Sexing the Cherry
