"The moment you accept things as they are you don't need to hope anymore. Because you realize that where you are is kind of okay."

“You have to meet people where they are, and sometimes you have to leave them there.”

“I am amazed at myself: the more I love mankind in general, the less I love people in particular, that is, individually”

“The most dangerous thing a woman can possess is self-worth. Liking her own body, trusting her own instincts, valuing her own time and company, thinking she’s interesting and special, entering business and personal relationships based only on mutual benefit and respect. Sometimes this leads to advertisers having no idea how to corner us. If we don’t hate ourselves, how will we know what to buy? Sometimes self-worth leads to violence against us. Sometimes, though, self-worth sets us free.”
