• "I started referring to myself as a writer less as a label to wear and more as a promise to fulfill." -Katie Cunningham
• "It's important to be kind. You can't know all the times that you've hurt people in tiny, significant ways. It's easy to be cruel without meaning to be. There's nothing you can do about that. But you can choose to be kind. Be kind." -Unknown
• "We will never be the same again. But here's a little secret for you: no one is sever the same thing again after anything. You are never the same twice, and much of your unhappiness comes from trying to pretend that you are. Accept that you are different each day, and do so joyfully, recognizing it for the gift it is. Work within the desires and goals of the person you are currently, until you aren't that person anymore, and everything changes once again." -Welcome to Night Vale
