“There are so few people given us to love. I want to tell my daughters this, that each time you fall in love it is important, even at nineteen. Especially at nineteen.

― Anne Enright, The Gathering

“Without a bellyful of liquor, all I am is a woman who cracks stupid jokes to make up for being shy.”
― Katie Crouch, Girls in Trucks

“The secret of life, though, is to fall seven times and to get up eight times.”
