“But the real lesson had been this: Follow intuition. If often leads in the right direction, if not directly to the destination.
Roman Dial, The Adventurer's Son

Charlotte McConaghy
“When Orly came along and it was just me, I realize how she’d known. She’d fucking learned. She had to, because somebody had to keep the babies alive, and so she bloody well gone on with it. And now I was going to have to do the same except without any back up, and the burden of this division of labor became astoundingly, mortifying clear to me. Oh how I had coasted upon the back of this woman, deep in the trenches with her and also very happy to let her learn all things and know all the things. How many times did I ask her which sleeping bag I should put the kids in? Or where the swaddles were? How many times did I pass over a crying baby, disappointed but also-come on, let’s be honest-releaved to know that they just wanted Mum and that I would never truly be the last line of defense? Then she went.”
Charlotte McConaghy, Wild Dark Shore

“A woman’s duty: To look the whole world in the face with a go-to-hell look in her eyes, to have an ideal, to speak and act in defiance of convention.”
Ellen Feldman, Terrible Virtue

Roman Dial
“During that golden age, we shared music and books, swapped interests and insights. And as he grew to know more than I did in economics, genetics, and politics, he shared his knowledge enriching my life.”
Roman Dial, The Adventurer's Son

Glennon Doyle Melton
“I think sexy is a grown-up word to describes a person who's confident that she is already exactly who she was made to be. A sexy woman knows herself and she likes the way she looks, thinks & feels. She doesn't try to change to match anybody else. She's a good friend herself kind and patient. and she knows how to use her words to tell people she trusts about what's going on inside of her-her fears and anger, love, dreams the mistakes, and needs. When she's angry she expresses her anger in healthy ways. When she's joyful, she does the same thing. She doesn't hide her true self because she is not ashamed. She knows she's just human-exactly how God made her and that's good enough. She's brave enough to be honest and kind enough to except others when they're honest. When two people are sexy enough to be brave and kind with each other, that's love. Sexy is more about how you feel and how you look. Real sexy is letting your true self come out of hiding and find love in safe places. That kind of sexy is good, really good, because we all we want and need love more than anything else”
Glennon Doyle Melton, Love Warrior
