Quote by Donna Goddard

“Dissolving our problems requires a lot of going into our emotions, memories, and pain. It is called by different names—burning karma, riding out emotions, going into oneself, dissolving memories. It means allowing angry, sad, and fearful thoughts to come up and be clearly seen so they can dissolve.”

“Preferably, I’d like to die a painless death, and how many times have I thought of it… but because it saddens the people around me, I was not able to say it. But that, too, is a lie. If I were given a chance, I would love to live. I do not want to be separated from my loving family. (From Dare ga Otome Game da to Itta! / Who Said This Was an Otome Game! / 誰が乙女ゲームだといった！)”

“Ikan yang bersedih memuntahkan kegelapan. Saya melihat Beliau mendekati gadis itu dan pelan-pelan membawanya ke dalam saya. Anak itu menapakkan kakinya, tapi hanya sedikit sekali yang ia ceritakan pada saya. Hanya ingatan terakhirnya: ditampar oleh ibunya, melarikan diri ke taman, bermainan ayunan berhari-hari sampai akhirnya dia berayun terlalu jauh dan terlempar ke luar angkasa. Saya tidak pernah tahu kalau luar angkasa dipenuhi anak-anak kecil yang terlempar dari ayunan. Tapi, kesedihan gadis ini begitu dalam. Begitu dalam, hingga matanya tak bisa melihat apa pun selain kegelapan. Dan, begitu gelap, hingga cahaya apa pun tidak bisa menembus selubung hitam yang melingkupi dirinya. Dan semua perasaan sedih itu tidak bisa keluar lagi; hanya semakin banyak luka yang masuk, tapi tidak bisa pergi, terjebak selamanya di dalam. Dan mereka terlempar pergi ke rongga angkasa, sebelum akhirnya, jika Beliau tidak datang menjemput, mereka sendiri akan menjadi rongga angkasa; menelan tanpa pernah memuntahkan, menolak semua jenis cahaya karena tak bisa lagi memercayai kebahagiaan.”

“I have been doomed to be a girl who must pass her earthly existence in a male body. How dreadful it is to a young woman to have a slight growth of hair on lip or cheeks ! Only one mark of the male ! How much more dreadful for a young woman to possess almost all the male anatomy as I do ! How I have bewailed my fate!”
