Quotes by Claire Christian  (?)

“Everything I do is dictated by my relationship with other people, and I mostly like that about myself. I’m a good daughter, friend, neighbour, teacher, even colleague – I mean, I always take time to re-fill the water cooler when its nearing empty. But there’s one relationship I’ve neglected my whole life: my relationship with myself”
Claire Christian, It's Been a Pleasure, Noni Blake

“Pleasure isn’t a person. It’s personal. And I need to work out what it looks like to me.”
Claire Christian, It's Been a Pleasure, Noni Blake

“It scares me that our brains can haunt us from the inside.”
Claire Christian, Beautiful Mess
