Reading the situation correctly is part of getting through it safely.

So much of life is in the smallness of moments...but they are harder to mark. So we need the grander celebrations and occasions. People like to feel significant.

Forgetting lets you live without the pain for a moment but remembering hits hard.

Growing apart doesn't change the fact that for a long time we grew side by side; our roots will always be tangled. I'm glad for that.

I have tried to be righteous all my life. Yet I have never been content.

Once you want something, everything changes. Now I want everything. More and more and more.

When we read dystopia, we root for these people to break free because we are these people; hoping and fighting against things that are bigger than ourselves.
