He made me feel unhinged . . . like he could take me apart and put me back together again and again.

I still get nightmares. In fact I get them so often I should be used to them by now. Im not. No one ever really gets used to nightmares.

So many of our dreams at first seem impossible, then they seem improbable, and then, when we summon the will, they soon become inevitable.

It is better to risk starving to death then surrender. If you give up on your dreams, what's left?

Hold fast to dreams, For if dreams die Life is a broken-winged bird, That cannot fly.
