Nevertheless, We Persisted Quotes

“We are not merely the effect of our environment; we can be creators. We can respond to what happens and make something that might reach, touch, communicate with another person. We get to participate in this ongoing conversation with kindred spirits across time and space, and the more we do, the more we seek out and attract the kinds of connections that make us feel less anxious and more at home. Instead of living under someone else’s rules, we can cocreate the kinds of spaces we wish to inhabit—where insides talk to insides, and we feel grateful to be in such extraordinary company.”
― Amy Klobuchar, Nevertheless, We Persisted: 48 Voices of Defiance, Strength, and Courage
