“Things are sweeter when they’re lost. I know—because once I wanted something and got it. It was the only thing I ever wanted badly…and when I got it it turned to dust in my hand.”— F. Scott Fitzgerald (via quotemadness)

“I was talking to a friend and I said, “I am undestroying myself.” The phrase just came to me, but it also felt right because that is where I am in my life—undoing the damage, both emotional and physical, that I did to myself, that was done to me. I’m trying to become a better person. I am trying to become myself.”— ~Roxane Gay, “For I Have Sinned.“
