Quote by Kimberly Willis Holt

“I'm not running for fiesta queen, I'm not going to be a suruhana, and I'm not making the golai hagun sune!" Auntie Bernadette seems hurt. "Isabel, you don't have to yell." "I do. You don't listen, I have to yell so you'll hear me.”

“Their locked hands offered a stark reminder of how many scars lingered … shards of war and distressing anguish forever branded them. Yet in this endearing moment of comfort, their adversity became skinspeak between survivors phoenixing from the ashes of their perilous journey—their burning eagerness for survival overcoming the forces that once tried to stifle their light.”

“In the past I think I had corralled rotten things into groups of three because at some level it gave me the impression I was controlling them, keeping track of them. In my world I believed the universe would only dish out so much shite before it realised it had overdone it and corrected matters. That, of course, turned out to be nonsense. The truth is that sometimes the shite just keeps on coming and that is what is so unfair. But here's the thing: it's never all shite. If you can wake up in the morning for just long enough to breathe in and out and see the sun shining, you're already surviving it. You're already if not getting around it, at least getting over it, getting past it. And who knows what can happen then?”
