“The notion of going high shouldn’t raise any questions about whether we are obligated to fight for more fairness, decency, and justice in this world; rather, it’s about how we fight, how we go about trying”
― Michelle Obama, The Light We Carry: Overcoming in Uncertain Times

“It’s okay to pace yourself, get a little rest, and speak of your struggles out loud. It’s okay to prioritize your wellness,”
― Michelle Obama, The Light We Carry: Overcoming in Uncertain Times

“Life has shown me that strong friendships are most often the result of strong intentions. Your table needs to be deliberately built, deliberately populated, and deliberately tended to.”
― Michelle Obama, The Light We Carry: Overcoming in Uncertain Times

“No one person, no one relationship, will fulfill your every need. Not every friend can offer you safety or support on every day. Not everyone can, or will, show up precisely when or how you need them to. And this is why it’s good to always continue making room at your table, to keep yourself open to gathering more friends. You will never not need them, and you will never stop learning from them.”
― Michelle Obama, The Light We Carry: Overcoming in Uncertain Times
