Adam M. Grant
“Not long ago, it dawned upon me that impostor syndrome is a paradox:

- others believe in you
- you don't believe in yourself
- yet you believe yourself instead of them

If you doubt yourself, shouldn't you also doubt your low opinion of yourself?”
Adam Grant, Hidden Potential: The Science of Achieving Greater Things

“Recently I was caught up in a spirit of anxiety. Nothing would shake it. But I simply gave myself to thanking and praising God for everything I could think of.”
C. John Miller, The Heart of a Servant Leader: Letters from Jack Miller

Georges Bataille
“Eroticism differs from animal sexuality in that human sexuality is limited by taboos and the domain of eroticism is that of the transgression of these taboos. Desire in eroticism is the desire that triumphs over the taboo. It presupposes man in conflict with himself.”
Georges Bataille

“David Kessler. I’ll never forget him saying this: “Each person’s grief is as unique as their fingerprint.28 But what everyone has in common is that no matter how they grieve, they share a need for their grief to be witnessed.”
Brené Brown, Atlas of the Heart: The Bestselling Guide to Understanding our Emotions and Developing Meaningful Connections

Mohammed Zaki Ansari
“Beauty is not what we see; it can be an illusion of the eyes.
Beauty is what we can feel.”
