“Many victims of narcissistic abuse are hypersensitive. They don't want to be told by others that they wrong when they fight with their narcissist. They see it as standing up for themselves, when in reality it is perpetuating what the narcissist wants- drama and a reaction.”

“Oh that I could give any idea of the scene; of that sweet, sweet, good, good woman in all the radiant beauty of her youth and animation, with the red scar on her forehead of which she was conscious, and which we saw with grinding of our teeth- remembering whence and how it came; her loving kindness against our grim hate; her tender faith against all our fears and doubting; and we, knowing that so far as symbols went, she with all her goodness and purity and faith, was outcast from God.”
― Bram Stoker, Dracula

“i don’t mind if he’s already married

but if he isn’t married

then what the hell am i doing

letting this soul of a dude

walk down the streets completely bloody single

out in the open like that

all vulnerable like that

for just any woman’s charm to hook him like that”
― Malab, The Komorébi, The Breast Mountains Of All Time

“As long as women are denied the priesthood, we will try to make our own rituals at our own kitchen altars and we will sew our own magical capes at our own sewing machines”
