“To be truly liberated is to escape the echo of old narratives.”

“I’m not the kind of girl who spends hours getting ready. I don’t blow dry my hair. And I hate make up. I’m not pretty. And I don’t want to be. I am passionate and restless and wild. I’m exhausted by prudent ideologies. I’m not inferior because of my lack of convention. I’m as strong as I am broken. I’m tired of having my sexuality mistaken for an invitation. I will sweat and I will run. I will let the rain come down on me. I want to feel life as I am. I don’t want to skate through having my immoderation controlled by weak judgements. By fear.

I don’t want to be who I’m supposed to be, I want to be who I am.”
― Jacqueline Simon Gunn

“I do not read for I have renounced life, I read because one life is just not enough for me.”
― Abbas Al-Akkad

“In a world where everyone wears a mask, it’s a privilege to see a soul.”
― Amanda Richardson, Heathens
