“I’m here. I love you. I don’t care if you need to stay up crying all night long, I will stay with you. If you need the medication again, go ahead and take it—I will love you through that, as well. If you don’t need the medication, I will love you, too. There’s nothing you can ever do to lose my love. I will protect you until you die, and after your death I will still protect you. I am stronger than Depression and I am braver than Loneliness and nothing will ever exhaust me.”
― Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love

“Make sure, as often as possible, you are doing something you’d be happy to die doing.”
― Matt Haig, The Humans

“To see ourselves as others see us is a most salutary gift. Hardly less important is the capacity to see others as they see themselves.”
― Aldous Huxley, The Doors of Perception
