Quote by Chloé Hayden

“Show them compassion, show them love, show them understanding. Protect them from the evils of the world, but don't hide them from it. Teach them to love and to be loved. Teach them to value and be valued. Teach them all that they are. Remind yourself and them that who they are is exactly who they're supposed to be. It's not the child who needs to change, it's the world.”

“Our society has taught us that if we act in a way that is different to the social norm, we are considered low functioning, stupid, dumb, childish, loony. And the thing is, perhaps those fears are valid. No one wants to see their child ridiculed. But why are we then determined to change the child, rather than the world around them? Why do we validate the wrong just because it's normalised, and ostracise the right just because it's not?”

“Mi ha spiegato che la raccomandazione a non fare i capetti, i vanitosi o gli intelligentoni crea delle barriere intorno a certi recessi della nostra personalità e da adulti ci spaventa l’idea di riscoprirli. Allora tendiamo a nascondere quelle parti di noi, quelle parti eccessive, oscure, eccentriche o ambigue, per la paura di non essere amati. Ma erano proprio quelle parti di noi -secondo lui - a essere le più belle.”

“When you decide to go in the opposite direction of everyone dedicated to misunderstanding You, and not look back, you start running into everyone who's waiting to accept You and the earth shifts right under feet, like that annoying song And now, things that annoyed you, and people that took you for granted no longer threaten your peace Only it can be slightly brutal; the cloud that stays- the epiphany that giggles while running down the hall, You always held the power.”

“Y'know you act like you're owning up to being a lameass. But you're socially awkward and you're a pain to deal with. You've got a big attitude. We can all see that from just lookin' at ya. But, even so, who even gives a crap about that? How can any of us feel disappointed when we see how something that hurts us hurts you, too, and how stupidly serious you can be, worrying about it? Why do you have to apologize when you just did what's natural and we've done the same to you? Did you really think that'd be enough to piss us off? Get real, dude! No one like that exists here in Furin! It doesn't matter how socially awkward you are, or what a pain you can be! You still charge straight into trouble just to protect your friends! You're really cool for it, too! I... no, we... really, seriously like you for you who are!”
