Book cover for The Woman Upstairs
When you’re the Woman Upstairs, nobody thinks of you first. Nobody calls you before anyone else, or sends you the first postcard. Once your mother dies, nobody loves you best of all.
Stephanie
Reading this only a few weeks after my own mother's passing I realized this is why I love reading. Sometimes we find our own feelings articulated in a way we couldn't put a finger on ourselves.

Neal Stephenson
“She's a woman, you're a dude. You're not supposed to understand her. That's not what she's after.... She doesn't want you to understand her. She knows that's impossible. She just wants you to understand yourself. Everything else is negotiable.”
Neal Stephenson, Snow Crash

Mitch Albom
“There are no random acts...We are all connected...You can no more separate one life from another than you can separate a breeze from the wind...”
Mitch Albom, The Five People You Meet in Heaven

Sheryl Sandberg
“I thought resilience was the capacity to endure pain, so I asked Adam how I could figure out how much I had. He explained that our amount of resilience isn’t fixed, so I should be asking instead how I could become resilient. Resilience is the strength and speed of our response to adversity—and we can build it. It isn’t about having a backbone. It’s about strengthening the muscles around our backbone. Since”
Sheryl Sandberg, Option B

Camille Paglia
“My advice, as in everything, is to read widely and think for yourself We need more dissent and less dogma.”
Camille Paglia

Clarissa Pinkola Estés
“For a wild child born into a rigid community, the usual outcome is to experience the ignominy of being shunned. Shunning treats the victim as if she does not exist. It withdraws spiritual concern, love, and other psychic necessities from that person. The idea is to force her to conform, or else kill her spirituality and/or to drive her from the village to languish and die in the outback”
Clarissa Pinkola Estés
