“There are chapters of our lives that once fit perfectly but eventually become too tight. Jobs that once felt exciting might feel limiting. ... We may fear hurting others or stepping into the unknown. ... Outgrowing a life does not diminish its value. The job you leave taught you skills. The relationship you end gave you memories. ... Lives we outgrow are not discarded; they are chapters that brought us to this page”

“This scrappy attitude is not the empty bluster of a fearful ego with a yellow comb-over seeking to preserve itself. It is a knowing of one's own strength, fortified by the mortal dangers of poverty, labor, mysogyny, White supremacy. It is the Statue of Liberty looking a bully in the eye in a barroom and saying to someone standing behind her, "Hold my torch.”

“And humans? They might not have big claws or immortality or the ability to phase through walls like some kind of video-game boss. They didn’t command armies of darkness or speak in frequencies that could shatter reality. But they had other shit. They were stubborn as hell — resourceful in ways that bordered on pure insanity.

Eraets, Hollow Deep: The Echo of the Dark Forest (2025)”
