The Phoenix Campaign Quotes

“For what? For loving that bastard? We can’t control who we fall in love with, or when. It might not be politically expedient, but I learned a long time ago that if we sacrifice who we love for our ambitions, achieving them is a hollow victory.”
― Heidi Joy Tretheway, The Phoenix Campaign

“To be loved for your best self is hollow. All can be beautiful, for a time. All can be graceful, in turn. But this love cannot endure. To be loved for your true self is fulfillment. It is a deeper magic, dynamic and wild. It celebrates the scars. It forgives the failings.  It embraces the struggle. True love is not blind. It sees. Everything. And yet, it still loves.”
― Heidi Joy Tretheway, The Phoenix Campaign
