“I’ve been friendly. I’ve been frightened. I’ve been fake. But I’ve never been fierce. I’ve been frustrated. I’ve been forgotten. I’ve been forgiving. But I’ve never been fierce. I wanna be fabulous. I wanna be flamboyant. I wanna flaunt what I’ve got. I want to be fierce.”
― Dean Atta, The Black Flamingo

“— I don’t want to pretend to be anyone, not any more."
"— So who is The Black Flamingo?"

― Dean Atta, The Black Flamingo

“Fear and bravery are often one and the same. It either makes you a warrior or a coward. The only difference is the person it resides inside.”
