Turcois Ominek
“One day they'll realize they lost a diamond while playing with worthless stones.”
Turcois Ominek

Paulo Coelho
“When a sense of dissatisfaction persists, that means it was placed there by God for one purpose only: you need to change everything and move forward.”
Paulo Coelho, Aleph

Khaled Hosseini
“i want to give up my bearings, slip out of who i am, shed everything, the way a snake discards old skin.”
Khaled Hosseini, And the Mountains Echoed

Khaled Hosseini
“I've crossed paths since with men like him. I wish I could say differently. But I have. And what I have learned is that you dig a little and you find they're all the same, give or take. Some are more polished, granted. They may come with a little bit of charm-- Or a lot -- and that can fool you. But really they're all unhappy little boys sloshing around in their own rage. They feel wronged. They haven't been given their due. No one loved them enough. Of course they expect you to love them. They want to be held, rocked, reassured. But it's a mistake to give it to them. They can't accept it. They can't accept the very thing they're needing. They end up hating you for it. And it never ends because they can't hate you enough. It never ends-- the misery, the apologies, the promises, the reneging, the wretchedness of it all. My first husband was like that.”
Khaled Hosseini, And the Mountains Echoed

“Don't throw your life away because of one man. Don't make yourself something he will always be glad he was rid of. Make yourself something he will wish he had kept.”
Lael Morgan, Good Time Girls of the Alaska-Yukon Gold Rush: A Secret History of the Far North
