Roxane Gay
“I am stronger than I am broken.”
Roxane Gay, Hunger: A Memoir of (My) Body

Roxane Gay
“I had (and have?) this void, this cavern of loneliness inside me that I have spent my whole life trying to fill. I was willing to do most anything if that boy would ease my loneliness, I wanted to feel like he and I belonged to each other, but each time we were together and then after, I felt quite the opposite. And still, I was drawn to him.”
Roxane Gay, Hunger: A Memoir of (My) Body

E.M. Forster
“It is not difficult to stand above the conventions when we leave no hostages among them; men can always be more unconventional than women, and a bachelor of independent means need encounter no difficulties at all.”
E.M. Forster, Howards End

L.M. Montgomery
“Not that I bother much with dress myself. Women just dress to please the men, and I'd never stoop to that. I have had a real placid, comfortable life, dearie, and it's just because I never cared a cent what the men thought.”
L.M. Montgomery

Diane Von Furstenberg
“Difficult moments that started with defeat and frustrations can become our most cherished souvenirs because, looking back, they were the seeds for success and have transformed into our most amusing and meaningful anecdotes.”
Diane Von Furstenberg
