“But I have seen the best of you and the worst of you, and I choose both. I want to share every single one of your sunshines and save them for later. I will tuck them into my pockets so I can give them back to you when the rain falls hard. Friend, I want to be the mirror that reminds you to love yourself. I want to be the air in your lungs that reminds you to breath. When the walls come down, when the thunder rumbles, when nobody else is home, hold my hand, and I promise I won’t let go.”
― Sarah Kay

“Words were different when they lived inside of you.”

“Now, should we treat women as independent agents, responsible for themselves? Of course. But being responsible has nothing to do with being raped.

― Jessica Valenti, The Purity Myth: How America's Obsession with Virginity is Hurting Young Women
