"I don't mean 'mother' in the cool ballroom way! I mean you try to act like my mother in the way you're so overprotective. I am a grown woman. I need you to support me, not cover me in bubble wrap and fight all my battles.”

“I find people confusing. This is for two main reasons. The first main reason is that people do a lot of talking without using any words.
