G. E. M. Anscombe
During my recovery, I gave myself self-love and self-care, and I embraced being curvier. I accepted what my body wanted to be, To this day my arms, shoulders, breasts, and thighs are fuller. I have a little mommy pouch, and I’m in no rush to get rid of it. I think it’s real.

Quiero hacer contigo lo que la primavera hace con los cerezos.
Pablo Neruda
I'm just a red nigger who love the sea,
I had a sound colonial education,
I have Dutch, nigger, and English in me,
and either I'm nobody, or I'm a nation.
Tishani Doshi
It was impossible to conceive of two creatures so different who got along so well and loved each other so much.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Quote Image
It is not the rich man's son that the young struggler for advancement has to fear in the race of life, nor his nephew, nor his cousin. Let him look out for the "dark horse" in the boy who begins by sweeping out the office.
Andrew Carnegie

Mencius (Mengzi)
