“Really, when I look back on it, I did exactly what I had set out to do. I changed my life. I woke myself up. I rediscovered passions of every variety. I forced myself to take a little time. I found a way to bring some of who I used to be into who I was.”

“and at some point I thought to myself: ‘no person deserves this,’ and I realized that includes even me.”

“It’s a terrible thing, I think, in life to wait until you are ready. I have this feeling that actually no-one is ever ready to do anything. There is almost no such thing as ready. There is only now.”

“The experiences that matter are often the ones we never wanted to do, not the ones we decide to do.”

“I was always ashamed to take. So I gave. It was not a virtue. It was a disguise.”
