“If I were going to give you more advice that I myself can’t seem to take, I would tell you that in order to build character, you don’t invent a new self, you instead build on what’s already there. The good parts. The things you love. As horrid as it sounds, at a certain point—i.e., the point we’re at now—you build your character on the foundation of all the things you love.”
― Rachel Cohn, Mind the Gap, Dash & Lily

“Some people stay broken. Some pick up the pieces and put them back together with all the sharp edges showing.”
― Dot Hutchison, The Butterfly Garden

“Love isn't soft, like
those poets say. Love has teeth which bite and the wounds never
close.”
― Stephen King, The Body

“Anything tries to destroy them, they’ll burn the world to take it down with them.”
― Dot Hutchison, Roses of May
