Book cover for Somewhere Beyond the Sea (Cerulean Chronicles, #2)
“But I believe the greatest weapon we have at our disposal is our voices. And I am going to use my voice for you, and for me. Hate is loud. We are louder.”

Madeline  Martin
“Good books were like amazing sunsets or awe-inspiring landscapes, better enjoyed with someone else. There was no greater experience in the world than sharing the love of a book, discussing its finer points, and reliving the story all over again.”
Madeline Martin, The Keeper of Hidden Books

Susan Meissner
“Sages of the past would say we are—all of us—just imperfect people on a flawed planet who are trying to hold on to what is good and lovely and right.”
Susan Meissner, Secrets of a Charmed Life

Jennifer Finney Boylan
“Probably no people embrace change more enthusiastically, at least in theory, than Americans. Who we are at birth is less important to us than who we will become. We are expected—indeed, obligated—not just to be, but to become.”
Jennifer Finney Boylan, She's Not There: A Life in Two Genders

Margery Williams Bianco
“Real isn't how you are made. It's a thing that happens to you. Sometimes it hurts, but when you are Real you don't mind being hurt. It doesn't happen all at once. You become. Once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand. Once you are Real you can't become unreal again. It lasts for always.”
Margery Williams Bianco, The Velveteen Rabbit

Brené Brown
“Marianne Williamson says, “Joy is what happens to us when we allow ourselves to recognize how good things really are.”
Brené Brown, The Gifts of Imperfection: Let Go of Who You Think You're Supposed to Be and Embrace Who You Are
