Should Quotes

“Being stick skinny to the extent where you can see your bones through your skin is not a good look. You don't need to be that to be beautiful or to be perfect or to fit in. Who you are is exactly who you should be. You can't let other people dictate your life or how you feel about yourself because then you're not living.”

Submission to slavery means surrender of life.”

It means that every single act and feeling, every experience, whether pleasant or unpleasant, must be referred to God.”
