"There is a huge amount of freedom that comes to you when you take nothing personally."

"I hate how the phrase ‘have some self respect’ is used to shame women who are comfortable with their sex lives. ‘Have some self respect’? I do respect myself, that’s why I wanna have a fucking orgasm tonight, thank you very much."

"Fashion is one of the very few forms of expression in which women have more freedom than men. And I don’t think it’s an accident that it’s typically seen as shallow, trivial, and vain. It is the height of irony that women are valued for our looks, encouraged to make ourselves beautiful and ornamental… and are then derided as shallow and vain for doing so. And it’s a subtle but definite form of sexism to take one of the few forms of expression where women have more freedom, and treat it as a form of expression that’s inherently superficial and trivial. Like it or not, fashion and style are primarily a women’s art form. And I think it gets treated as trivial because women get treated as trivial."

"Raise your words, not voice. It is rain that grows flowers, not thunder."

"No one is going to give you the education you need to overthrow them"

"I don’t need someone to complete me, I need someone to make things a little bit better every now and again."

"You’re under no obligation to be the same person you were five minutes ago."

"A healthy relationship is one where two independent people just make a deal that they will help make the other person the best version of themselves."

"We sometimes encounter people, even perfect strangers, who begin to interest us at first sight, somehow suddenly, all at once, before a word has been spoken."
