Olivia’s Quotes

“Her hazel eyes were sharp and intelligent and completely fearless.”
― John Steinbeck, East of Eden

“Ultra running isn’t a mystery—it’s hard work and human nature. I believe anyone can do it. If it’s in you, if you want it, you can do it. You can run 30 miles, 50 miles, 100 miles. You don’t have to look like a runner—anyone can be a runner. You don’t have to be fast, you don’t have to know anything. You just have to start small and break it down.

You will be afraid. You’ll worry about wild animals and strangers and getting injured and losing everything. This is natural. This is resistance. You’re stronger than you think you are. Keep going.”
― Katie Arnold, Running Home

“I think that control might actually be the opposite of love, because control leaves no room for trust—and maybe love without trust is not love at all.”
― Glennon Doyle, Untamed

“You know how to be alone without being lonely. Do you know how rare that is? Do you know how much I wish I could do that? It’s a wonderful thing you’ve got going on there.”
― Dolly Alderton, Good Material

“One of the biggest issues with mainstream feminist writing has been the way the idea of what constitutes a feminist issue is framed. We rarely talk about basic needs as a feminist issue. Food insecurity and access to quality education, safe neighborhoods, a living wage, and medical care are all feminist issues. Instead of a framework that focuses on helping women get basic needs met, all too often the focus is not on survival but on increasing privilege. For a movement that is meant to represent all women, it often centers on those who already have most of their needs met.”
― Mikki Kendall, Hood Feminism: Notes from the Women That a Movement Forgot
