Louise Rennison
“He says we should take it easy and that maybe he overreacted a bit."

Dave said, "A bit? That's like Hitler saying, 'Oooh, I just meant to go for a little walk, but then I accidentally invaded Poland.”
Louise Rennison, Are These My Basoomas I See Before Me?

Scott Stratten
“Don't try to win over the haters; you are not a jackass whisperer.”
Scott Stratten, UnMarketing: Stop Marketing. Start Engaging.

John Green
“Saying 'I notice you're a nerd' is like saying, 'Hey, I notice that you'd rather be intelligent than be stupid, that you'd rather be thoughtful than be vapid, that you believe that there are things that matter more than the arrest record of Lindsay Lohan. Why is that?' In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary insults are pretty lame. Even 'lame' is kind of lame. Saying 'You're lame' is like saying 'You walk with a limp.' Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he's done all right for himself.”
John Green

Margaret Atwood
“Nolite te bastardes carborundorum. Don't let the bastards grind you down.”
Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid’s Tale

Brené Brown
“The dark does not destroy the light; it defines it. It's our fear of the dark that casts our joy into the shadows.”
Brene Brown, The Gifts of Imperfection
