Lianne’s Quotes

“When she married, she couldn’t wait to put on her wedding ring and take her husband’s name. But all these years later, without even her own name to cling to, she felt rudderless, cast adrift.”

“Niceness is good manners, and stopping to give someone directions, and smiling at the overworked cashier at the supermarket. These are all good things, but they have nothing to do with what’s underneath. Niceness is all about what we do when other people are looking. Kindness, on the other hand, runs deep. Kindness is what happens when no one’s looking.”
― Sangu Mandanna, The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches

We are all sucked into it, through those little computers we carry around with us in our pockets, machines whose algorithms force us to bear silent witness to catastrophes all around the globe constantly, even when there’s nothing we can do about them except be drawn down into a caldera of depression and inertia.”
― Jeremy Renner, My Next Breath: A Memoir
