“LOVE YOURSELF TODAY BY JUST BEING Be wrong, be right, be strong, be weak, be fierce, be afraid—be whatever your heart wants you to be in this moment. First and foremost, be honest. The worst thing to be is a lie.”

“They say curiosity killed the cat, but that was only the tenth time. During his other nine lives, the cat relished in the boons of his curiosity.”

“But is this how he’s going to spend the rest of his life? Giving up huge parts of himself to care for a woman who is just a shell of the person he married? I understand he made vows, but at what cost? His entire life? People get married assuming they’ll live long, happy lives together. What happens when one of those is cut short, but the other is expected to live out those vows for the rest of their life? It doesn’t seem fair. I know if I were married and my husband were in Jeremy’s predicament, I wouldn’t want my husband to feel like he could never move on. But I’m not sure I’ll ever be as obsessed with a man as Verity was with Jeremy.”
― Colleen Hoover, Verity

“That afternoon it seemed all disappointment. I went over the heads of the things a man reckons desirable. No doubt invisibility made it possible to get them, but it made it impossible to enjoy them when they are got. Ambition—what is the good of pride of place when you cannot appear there? What is the good of the love of woman when her name must needs be Delilah? I have no taste for politics, for the blackguardisms of fame, for philanthropy, for sport. What was I to do? And for this I had become a wrapped-up mystery, a swathed and bandaged caricature of a man!”
― H.G. Wells, The Invisible Man
