“That what you've always had doesn't mean that's what you'll always get. That what you've always wanted isn't what you'll always want”
― Huntley Fitzpatrick, What I Thought Was True

“[...] just remember, the storm doesn't last forever. It can scare you; it can shake you to your core. But it never lasts. The rain subsides, the thunder dies, and the winds calm to a soft whisper. And that moment after the storm clouds pass, when all is silent and still, you find peace. Quiet, gentle peace.”
― S.L. Jennings, Fear of Falling

“Maybe I stop talking because I don’t
know what to say. Or maybe I stop because I finally get that
sometimes we hold on to something—a person, a resentment,
a regret, an idea of who we are—because we don’t know what
to reach for next. That what we’ve done before is what we have to do again. That there are only re-dos and no do-overs. And
maybe . . . maybe I know better than that.”
― Huntley Fitzpatrick, What I Thought Was True

“If I had known things would turn out this way, I would have trained harder. I would have learned to take care of myself. But I guess that's the point, isn't it? You never know what you're going to have to face, so you'd better be prepared.”
― Becca Fitzpatrick, Black Ice
