Z.M.’s Quotes

“It becomes a kind of recurring loop, where your interactions with media feed into real life, then real life feeds back into media, in order to create something more complex than either on their own, sometimes for better and sometimes for worse. But when people engage with kindness and empathy as their foundation, I think those interactions are mostly positive ones.”
― D.N. Bryn, How to Bite Your Neighbor and Win a Wager

“It felt like running a marathon. But even marathons, his therapist reminded him, were run one step at a time.”

“Love is imperfect—it’s downright fucked up sometimes, honestly—but you can’t manhandle it into shape and you can’t force anyone to be yours.”

“I was of the impression that you thrived in a more controlled environment.” “Excuse me, but I am very much a master of my own destiny, Jacobi!” “Yes, sir.” “The captain of my own soul!” “Indubitably, sir.”
