Sometimes you need to remind yourself that you were the one who carried you through the heartache. You are the one who sits with the cold body on the shower floor, and picks it up. You are the one who feeds it, who clothes it, who tucks it into bed, and you should be proud of that. Having the strength to take care of yourself when the world is trying to bleed you dry, that is the strongest thing in the universe.

“A person is never as quiet or unrestrained as they seem, or as bad or good, as vulnerable or as strong, as sweet or as feisty; we are thickly layered, … page lying upon page, behind simple covers. And love - it is not the book itself, but the binding. It can rip us apart or hold us together. Layers, by their nature, are fragile things.”
— Deb Caletti
"حينما يكتمل وعي الإنسان
و إدراكه للحياة،
إمّا أن يعيش في الصمت إلى الأبد،
أو أن يصبح ثائرًا في وجه كل شيء.“
