Quote by Jo Hamya

“The contradiction of the time had been the heightened moral obligation to consider other people as a means to keeping one's own self-interest afloat. Showing other people care meant avoiding them.”

“Remember – if you don’t take care of yourself – you can’t take good care of others; that’s why taking care of yourself is the best thing you can do.” “মনে রাখবেন – আপনি যদি নিজের যত্ন না নেন – আপনি অন্যের ভাল যত্ন নিতে পারবেন না; সেজন্য নিজের যত্ন নেওয়াই আপনি করতে পারেন সেরা জিনিস।”

“Come evidenziato dalla letteratura femminista sull’etica della cura, termini quali dipendenza e vulnerabilità portano ancora lo stigma di connotazioni negative, rinforzando stereotipi culturali di autonomia e individualismo fino a svalutare l’idea stessa di cura. Forse invece è utile ripensare la categoria della dipendenza come una questione umana universale, riconoscendo come tutte e tutti siamo dipendenti nella nostra vita quotidiana da altre persone, da tecnologie, da oggetti, da ambienti materiali costruiti sulla base delle specificità dei nostri corpi e da mille relazioni di ogni tipo. Non si tratta affatto di negare le differenze dei corpi e delle menti, ma di accettare la natura universale della dipendenza e, di converso, attenuare l’insistenza sul mito dell’indipendenza e dell’autonomia come principi fondativi di qualsiasi strategia o politica per la disabilità.”

“Why...? Why didn't you say anything? I know that you were hiding something. But I never asked. I didn't think I needed to. I trusted you to tell me when you really needed help. All you have to do is say it... and no matter when, no matter what, I'd be there to save you. You can at least count on me when you're going through a tough time! You're not going to get away scot-free the next time you even think that you're a bother! You have absolutely no idea just how much I love you!”
