Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
“One only understands the things that one tames,” said the fox. “Men have
no more time to understand anything. They buy things all ready made at the
shops. But there is no shop anywhere where one can buy friendship, and so
men have no friends any more. If you want a friend, tame me. . .”
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

Augusten Burroughs
“Doctor, if being a bitch is healthy, then I am the healthiest damn woman on the face of the earth”
Augusten Burroughs, Running with Scissors

“Then suddenly, months of patience suffering gave way to anger. His heart cried out savagely to its maker, insisting upon being heard.
– If I must live –, it said – and live ad live, you cannot leave me. You cannot leave us!
– Either restore us all to life –, it said, – or teach me to die.
This was no self-pitying prayer. It was a howl of indignation, as if some creature bound hand and foot were rattling its chains. The whole house groaned, and the sighing of it was heard within the halls of heaven.”
Sylvia Waugh, Mennyms Alone

Madeleine L'Engle
“If you aren't unhappy sometimes you don't know how to be happy.”
Madeleine L'Engle, A Wrinkle in Time

Madeleine L'Engle
“People are more than just the way they look.”
Madeleine L'Engle, A Wrinkle in Time
