Dolly Alderton
“You’re trying to lead two lives,” a friend once said to me when I was on the brink of exhaustion. “You have to choose which you’d rather be: the woman who parties harder than anyone else or the woman who works harder than anyone else.”
Dolly Alderton, Everything I Know About Love

Zona Gale
“I don't know a better preparation for life than love of poetry and a good digestion”
Zona Gale

Nicola Yoon
“Life is a gift. Don't forget to live it.”
Nicola Yoon, Everything, Everything

Sherwood Anderson
“I am a lover and have not found my thing to love.”
Sherwood Anderson

Dolly Alderton
“I carried on because it was the only thing I could control. I carried on because I just wanted to be happy and everyone knows when you’re thinner, you’re happier. I carried on because, at every turn, society was rewarding me for my self-inflicted torture. I received compliments, I received propositions, I felt more accepted by people I didn’t know, nearly all clothes looked great on me. I felt like I had finally earnt the right to be taken seriously as a woman; that everything before that had been redundant. That I had been foolish to think I had ever been worthy of affection. I had equated love with thinness and, to my horror, reinforcement of this belief was everywhere. My health was plummeting, my stocks were up.”
Dolly Alderton, Everything I Know About Love
