Quote by Matt Haig

“She imagined, now, what it would be like to accept herself completely. Every mistake she had ever made. Every mark on her body. Every dream she hadn't reached or pain she had felt. Every lust or longing she had suppressed. She imaged accepting it all. The way she accepted nature. The way she accepted a glacier or a puffin or the breach of a whale.”

“Carving Inclusion (The Sonnet) Carving a sonnet of inclusion on a statue, Does not magically make a nation accepting. There ain't gonna be no inclusion unless we, Stop filibustering, and start love-mustering. Turning back the clock on cultural diversity, Does not make a nation strong and progressive. Traditions that refuse inclusion and expansion, Are sheer poison in the path of societal uplift. A rigid nation is no nation but a primitive tribe, A civilized community practices reason and warmth. Economy does not make a nation super power, Equality and inclusion reveal its true worth. Assimilation is to be etched upon the national heart, Only then we can call such heart a human heart.”
