Mandy Hale: "A relationship cannot bring you things you should be giving yourself: validation, self-worth, and completeness."

You are a person, not a destiny.

Whatever you are physically, male or female, strong or weak, ill or healthy, all those things matter less than what your heart contains.

Most monsters were missing some essential part of themselves.

For us, the places we went were home. We didn't care if they were good or evil or neutral or what. We cared about the fact that for the first time, we didn't have to pretend to be something we weren't.

You're nobody's rainbow. You're nobody's princess. You're nobody's doorway but your own.
