I’ve seen enough to know that you can be a human with a mountain of resources and you can be a human with nothing, and you can be a monster either way
Here’s the remarkable thing about self-love: When you start to love yourself for the first time, when you start to truly embrace who you are—flaws and all—your scars start to look a lot more like beauty marks. The words that used to haunt you transform into badges of pride
You’d be surprised how quickly the mind goes soggy in the absence of other people. One person alone is not a full person: we exist in relation to others
It is sometimes an appropriate response to reality to go insane

Some birds are not meant to be caged, that's all. Their feathers are too bright, their songs too sweet and wild.

Every atom of your flesh is dear to me as my own: In pain and sickness it would still be dear
One day I will find the right words, and they all will be simple
All we can know is that we know nothing. And that’s the height of human wisdom
