“and when we speak we are afraid
our words will not be heard
nor welcomed
but when we are silent
we are still afraid
So it is better to speak
remembering
we were never meant to survive”
― Audre Lorde, The Black Unicorn: Poems

“I'll let you be in my dreams if I can be in yours”
― Bob Dylan, Lyrics: 1962-2001

“Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.”

“I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.”
― Marilyn Monroe
