“The thing I admire most
about you
is no matter how hard,
or how much the world
has tried to
beat you,
break you,
destroy you,
and throw you to the wolves
you are still here,
turning all your pain
all your suffering
into armor,
into determination,
into weapons
and earning the respect
of that same pack of wolves
that were meant to rip you
limb from limb.”
― Nikita Gill, Wild Embers: Poems of Rebellion, Fire and Beauty

“Dealing with cops is like being around a skittish horse: No sudden movements, nothing shiny or loud. Zero jokes.”
― Stephen Graham Jones, The Only Good Indians

“You take many things from the world, but I wonder what you will give back in return?”
― Genzaburo Yoshino, How Do You Live?

“Love is certainly never safe, but it’s absolutely worth it.”
― Talia Hibbert, Get a Life, Chloe Brown
