If You See Them Quotes

“When Vicki set up the apartment for me, she bought me a quilt for my bed. It was patchwork-white, blue, some checkered prints, some flowers, some green. And that first night, I just wrapped myself in that quilt to feel safe. It's been with me ever since. It's been with me through some of the hardest times in my life. It's falling apart now; it's like strings in places. My husband hates it, but I can't get rid of it. I hold on to the things that keep me safe.”
― Vicki Sokolik, If You See Them: Young, Unhoused, and Alone in America
