Grady Hendrix
“But,” Miss Parcae said, “power without mercy is cruelty. And isn’t that what you’re subjected to now?”
Grady Hendrix, Witchcraft for Wayward Girls

Mary Kubica
“As nurses, we’re supposed to compartmentalize, to be detached, to mentally separate our professional lives from our personal lives, like sorting medication into a pill sorter, clearly divided with thick plastic tabs. We were taught this in nursing school, though it’s not that easy and it’s not something that can be taught—to care for and about our patients, but to not let ourselves get emotionally attached because attachment, they say, leads to burnout, which causes nurses to leave an already hemorrhaging profession. It’s hard because as nurses, it’s in our nature to be compassionate, and these two things—detachment and compassion—are at odds with one another.”
Mary Kubica, She's Not Sorry

Lara Love Hardin
“The truth is I’ve only ever had one addiction. The white whale of addictions: escape. From as far back as I can remember there has always been a better place than wherever I am. A better me than whoever I was. Books helped me escape when I was young. Not just because of my precocious angsty-ness and early onset existential crises; they were literal escape.”
Lara Love Hardin, The Many Lives of Mama Love: A Memoir of Lying, Stealing, Writing, and Healing

Mary Kubica
“The truth is that social media is an optical illusion. It’s an unreality, it’s the very deliberate version of people’s lives that they want you to see.”
Mary Kubica, She's Not Sorry

Grady Hendrix
“Reading the wrong book is almost worse than not reading any book at all,”
Grady Hendrix, Witchcraft for Wayward Girls
