“We are not into trying to educate white America, but may we accidentally did. Maybe white readers learned that just because your Black friends aren't sitting you down, going over all their trauma with you, doesn't mean it doesn't exist!”
Amber Ruffin, You'll Never Believe What Happened to Lacey: Crazy Stories about Racism

“We get smarter and more creative as we age, research shows. Our brain's anatomy, neural networks, and cognitive abilities can actually improve with age and increased life experiences. Contrary to the mythology of Silicon Valley, older employees may be even more productive, innovative, and collaborative than younger ones... Most people, in fact, have multiple cognitive peaks throughout their lives.”
Rich Karlgaard, Late Bloomers: The Power of Patience in a World Obsessed with Early Achievement

John Green
“One of the strange things about adulthood is that you are your current self, but you are also all the selves you used to be, the ones you grew out of but can't ever quite get rid of.”
John Green, The Anthropocene Reviewed: Essays on a Human-Centered Planet

“I wonder if anyone really identifies as the adult they've morphed into.”
Emily Austin, Everyone in This Room Will Someday Be Dead

“I have never been able to understand why white people have such a low tolerance for hearing about racism. I mean, we have to live it! The least you could do is nod your head.”
Amber Ruffin, You'll Never Believe What Happened to Lacey: Crazy Stories about Racism
