“NO SUCH THING AS THE INNOCENT BYSTANDER Silence rides shotgun wherever hate goes.”
― Andrea Gibson, You Better Be Lightning

“I’m a sociable introvert. I enjoy coffee dates and Christmas parties and weddings and neighborhood picnics. I love noisy family dinners and hosting playdates and chatting with other parents on the baseball sidelines. I get a little restless when I don’t get regular doses of social interaction. But when I get out of balance—when I spend too much time extraverting, according to my personal definition of “too much”—I am useless. When I ignore the warning signs and keep extraverting until I enter the Overtalked Introvert Danger Zone, I get totally overwhelmed and borderline rude and can barely string sentences together. I wish I were exaggerating.”

“Surrender will always feel like dying, and yet it is the necessary path to liberation.”
