“Im pretty, but im not beautiful. I sin, but im not the devil. Im good, but im not an angel.” Uncategorized
“I had to use my wits or else I'd have been sunk - and nothings going to sink me. Everyone was always pulling at me, tugging at me, as if they wanted a piece of me. It was always, 'do this, do that,' and not just on the job but off, too. God, I've tried to stay intact, whole.” Uncategorized
“After all, all we demanded was a right to twinkle.” Uncategorized
“There is nothing positive about being fat. And there is nothing positive about loving yourself. We all need to conform to society's expectations of who we are, because if we don't, who will? Life is more enjoyable when you are thin and pretty. I was never fat a day in my life and I never will.” Uncategorized
“I'm a failure as a woman. My men expect so much of me, because of the image they've made of me—and that I've made of myself—as a sex symbol. They expect bells to ring and whistles to whistle, but my anatomy is the same as any other woman's and I can't live up to it” Uncategorized
“I just want to be wonderful.” Uncategorized
“A strong man doesn't have to be dominant toward a woman. He doesn't match his strength against a woman weak with love for him. He matches it against the world.” Uncategorized
“Always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, Sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.” Uncategorized
“If a man doesn't want you at your worst, then he sure as hell doesn't deserve you at your best.” Uncategorized
“I don’t stop when I’m tired. I only stop when I’m done ... I’m the type of person that tries to fall back asleep in the morning just to finish a dream... “I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.” Uncategorized
“I said pour yourself a drink, put on some lipstick, and pull yourself together.” Uncategorized
“I would have told her then she was the only thing that I could love in this dying world but the simple word "love" itself already died and went away.” Uncategorized
“People had a habit of looking at me as if I were some kind of mirror instead of a person. They didn't see me, they saw their own lewd thoughts, then they white-masked themselves by calling me the lewd one.” Uncategorized
“Trying to build myself up with the fact that I have done things right that were even good and have had moments that were excellent but the bad is heavier to carry around and feel have no confidence.” Uncategorized
“Men are always ready to respect anything that bores them.” Uncategorized
“You might as well make yourself fly as to make yourself love.” Uncategorized
“so keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.” Uncategorized
“I could never pretend something I didn't feel. I could never make love if I didn't love, and if I loved I could no more hide the fact than change the color of my eyes.” Uncategorized
“To all the girls that think you’re fat because you’re not a size zero, you’re the beautiful one, its society who’s ugly.” Uncategorized
“But chiefly, no lies! No lies about there being a Santa Claus or about the world being full of noble and honorable people all eager to help each other and do good to each other. I'll tell her there are honor and goodness in the world, the same as there are diamonds and radium.” Uncategorized
