Adeline Yen Mah
“keep in mind that whenever you are in a crisis, you are in the midst of danger as well as oportunity.”
Adeline Yen Mah, Chinese Cinderella: The True Story of an Unwanted Daughter

Taylor Jenkins Reid
“No … because they are just husbands. I am Evelyn Hugo. And anyways, I think once people know the truth, they will be much more interested in my wife.”
Taylor Jenkins Reid, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo

Taylor Jenkins Reid
“I wanted to give her a lot of things. I wanted what I had to be hers. I wondered if this was what it felt like to love someone. I already knew what it meant to be in love with someone. I'd felt it, and I'd acted it. But to love someone. To care for them. To throw your lot in with theirs and think, Whatever happens, it's you and me.”
Taylor Jenkins Reid, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo
tags: care, love

Lena Dunham
“You will find,” she says, “that there’s a certain grace to having your heart broken.”
Lena Dunham, Not That Kind of Girl: A young woman tells you what she's "learned"

However, you are not alone. Generations of women in your family have chosen. Women around the world have chosen. We all have chosen at one time in our lives. We stand behind you now screaming:

Choose to let go.
Choose dignity.
Choose to forgive yourself.
Choose to forgive others.
Choose to see your value.
Choose to show the world you’re not a victim.
Choose to make us proud.”
