I know what it’s like to be deliberately misinterpreted, to have someone say that I am doing one thing when in reality I am doing just the opposite.
“The trick with constructive fighting, then, is to remember that we have to be able to rumble while doing our best to keep the other person feeling safe.”

“I have learned that I like to get things done, even if they are a compromise. My husband will endure a lot of hardship for the result he wants. One way of saying this is that I am sloppy and he is rigorous. Another is that I am realistic and he is insane.

What if we all rejected the poison—then what? I’ll tell you what: world domination, bitches.”
