“You won’t understand what I mean now, but someday you will: the only trick of friendship, I think, is to find people who are better than you are—not smarter, not cooler, but kinder, and more generous, and more forgiving—and then to appreciate them for what they can teach you, and to try to listen to them when they tell you something about yourself, no matter how bad—or good—it might be, and to trust them, which is the hardest thing of all. But the best, as well.”
― Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life

“You only have to forgive once. To resent, you have to do it all day, every day.”
― M.L Stedman

“You know, you could live a thousand lifetimes and not deserve him.”
― Suzanne Collins, Catching Fire
