“To think for oneself doesn't necessarily mean to
understand everything”
― David Diop, At Night All Blood is Black

“Attachment, the cause of all suffering, so the Buddhists say. To cling to what you have, what you have had, the life you have known, the handful of people and places you have ever really loved, to cling and not let go. Never relenting, never accepting, becoming all the time more enmeshed, holding harder, loving and hating more.”
― Sally Rooney, Intermezzo

“Love is not weakness. It's the bravest act of our lives.”
― Georgia Scott, American Girl: Memories That Made Me

“Love is the bold affirmation of hope.”
― Elif Shafak, The Island of Missing Trees
