Caroline   George
“We try to be perfect to meet other people's expectations. But making good choices--I think that's on us. We do good because we see value in good.”
Caroline George, The Summer We Forgot

Elizabeth Knox
“Suddenly Taryn was furious. 'Why the hell are you always so careful?'

'What else should I be? Most of the good in the world is remedial. It's fixing things and caring for people. Taking care.”
Elizabeth Knox, The Absolute Book
