“We are all equal in the fact that we are all different. We are all the same in the fact that we will never be the same. We are united by the reality that all colours and all cultures are distinct & individual. We are harmonious in the reality that we are all held to this earth by the same gravity. We don't share blood, but we share the air that keeps us alive. I will not blind myself and say that my black brother is not different from me. I will not blind myself and say that my brown sister is not different from me. But my black brother is he as much as I am me. But my brown sister is she as much as I am me.”

“only a matter of time before it broke through our fragile web of denial,
forcing us to confront the truth and acknowledge who we are:
two people in love – a love that nobody else could possibly understand.”
― Tabitha Suzuma, Forbidden

“Being together, we harm nobody; being apart, we extinguish ourselves.”

“distance is not for the fearful, it's for the bold. It's for those who are willing to spend a lot of time alone in exchange for a little time with the one they love. It's for those who know a good thing when they see it, even if they don't see it nearly enough”
― Meghan Daum
