Kelly McGonigal
“You need to recognize when you’re making a choice that requires willpower; otherwise, the brain always defaults to what is easiest.”
Kelly McGonigal, The Willpower Instinct: How Self-Control Works, Why It Matters, and What You Can Do To Get More of It

“Where has this cold come from?
“It comes from the death of your friend.”

Will I always, from now on, be this cold?
“No, it will diminish. But always it will be with you.”

What is the reason for it?
“Wasn’t your friendship always as beautiful as a flame?”
Mary Oliver, Felicity

Isabel Miller
“I looked on up to her eyes and held there steady, thinking pretty soon she’d look away, and then when I knew she wouldn’t the silver thread our eyes were joined by began to hum like far-off bees. I felt my soul melt and flow out along it. I felt my heart melt and drip off my fingertips.”
Isabel Miller, Patience & Sarah

Brené Brown
“Healthy striving is self-focused: "How can I improve?" Perfectionism is other-focused: "What will they think?”
Brené Brown, The Gifts of Imperfection

Kate Millett
“To love is simply to allow another to be, live, grow, expand, become. An appreciation that demands and expects nothing in return.”
Kate Millett, Sita
