"Don't hang out with people who don't love you. Don't try to impress people who aren't worth it. Don't try to win people over who aren't worth it. Focus on yourself, and focus on the people who are really awesome and who love you. Don't hang out with people who make you feel like shit. Don't spend your energy on them. There is so much pressure to be part of the right thing: well, you should create the right thing. If you don't see it, create it. If you don't see what you want, be the change you want to see." - Beth Ditto

"Fall in love with someone who wants you, who waits for you, who understands you even in the madness; someone who helps you, and guides you, someone who is your support, your hope, fall in love with someone who talks with you after a fight. Fall in love with someone who misses you and wants to be with you. Do not fall in love only with a body or with a face; or with the idea of being in love." - Unknown

"I think a lot about killing myself, not like a point on a map but rather ... like a glowing exit sign at a show that's never been quite bad enough to make me want to leave. See, when I'm up I don't kill myself because, holy shit, there's so much left to do! When I'm down I don't kill myself because then the sadness would be over and the sadness is my old paint under the new. The sadness is the house fire or the broken shoulder. I'd still be me without it, but I'd be so boring!" - Neil Hilborn

1582nd.
"Fun fact: If my younger sister was in a car accident and desperately needed a blood transfusion to live, and I was the only person on Earth who could donate blood to save her, and even though donating blood is relatively easy, safe, and quick procedure, NO ONE CAN FORCE ME TO GIVE BLOOD. Yes, even to safe to the life of a fully grown person, it would be ILLEGAL to FORCE me to donate blood if I DIDN'T WANT TO. See, we have this concept called 'bodily autonomy.' It's this ... cultural notion that a person's control over their own body is above all important and must not be infringed upon. Like, we can't even take LIFE SAVING organs from CORPSES unless the person whose corpse it is gave consent before their death. Even corpses get bodily autonomy. To tell people they MUST sacrifice their bodily autonomy for 9 months against their will in an incredibly expensive, invasive, difficult process to save what YOU view as another human life (a debatable claim in the early stages of pregnancy when the vast majority of abortion are performed) is DESPERATELY UNETHICAL. You can't even ask people to sacrifice bodily autonomy to give up organs they aren't using anymore after they have died. You're asking people who can become pregnant to accept less bodily autonomy than we grant to dead bodies." - Fandoms and Feminism

"No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite." - Nelson Mandela
