Glennon Doyle Melton
“If I want my world to be less vicious, then I must become more gentle. If I want my children to embrace other children for who they are, to treat other children with the dignity and respect every child of God deserves, then I had better treat other adults the same way. And I better make sure that my children know beyond a shadow of a doubt that in God's and their father's and my eyes, they are okay. They are loved as they are. Without a single unless. Because the kids who bully are those who are afraid that a secret part of themselves is not okay.”
Glennon Doyle Melton, Carry On, Warrior: Thoughts on Life Unarmed

Gary Shteyngart
“Remember this... develop a sense of nostalgia for something, or you'll never figure out what's important.”
Gary Shteyngart, Super Sad True Love Story

Henry Louis Gates Jr.
“Censorship is to art as lynching is to justice.”
Henry Louis Gates Jr

Mandy Steward
“I see a huge monster, and his name is Religion, and I am finally brave enough to be angry with him, because he has stolen God away from me, making Him into a tame little puny judge with graying hair who raps his wooden mallet and squeaks out, "You're forever guilty.”
Mandy Steward, Thrashing About with God: Finding Faith on the Other Side of Everything

Jamie   Wright
“How we speak to a waiter, treat a beggar, spend a dollar—with every action we take, we are creating the world we live in. We get to decide whether our contribution to this story is patience or exasperation, compassion or condemnation, awareness or foolishness, liberation or enslavement. We can’t go back and erase the parts we’re not proud of, but we can move forward different and better.”
Jamie Wright, The Very Worst Missionary: A Memoir or Whatever
