La persona del libro

She's happy with who she is. Maybe it's not the heteronormative dream that she grew up wishing for, but... knowing who you are and loving yourself is so much better than that, I think.

You know why people pair up into couples? Because being a human is fucking terrifying. But it's a hell of a lot easier if you're not doing it by yourself.

That is the problem with stories, child. The truth in them cannot be weighed.

"Why do you have to prove anything to anyone? [...] You don't need anyone's permission to be you,"

That's my problem, actually. I don't talk to anybody about what's going on in my head, because I'm afraid they might not be able to take it.

I'd rather die on an adventure than live standing still.

Even if we can't change the big picture, our choices can alter the details. That's how we rebel against destiny, how we make our mark.

They can't really control what goes inside my head, and I think that frustrates them to no end.

And it will be the tragedy of my life that I cannot love you enough to make you mine. That you cannot be loved enough to be anyone’s.

There's this idea that if you're not straight, you HAVE to tell all your family and friends immediately, like you owe it to them. But you don't. You don't have to do anything until you're ready.

Haven’t you ever wondered what it would be like to have nothing keeping you attached to the ground?

“You’ll be a rumor. A whisper. The thought that wakes the bastards of this world sweating in the nevernight. The last thing you will ever be in this world, girl, is someone’s hero. [...] But you will be a girl heroes fear.”
