“The woman who tames fires and snakes and savours bones.”

Nothing will come of forcing yourself to compete your way out of trauma.

Even the day must let go of the sun and allow the light to disappear, so the darkness can live for a while. The only way out of grief is through it.

There is no justice in the world. You have to make your own, because believe me, the cosmos that gifted you the chaos, also created you with care.

You are not his princess. You are your own queen.

Girlhood is confronting the parts of you that you think are too dark for anyone to love.

If he truly loves you, he will love you when you are an ocean breeze but also when you are a summer storm. You were not made to be loved in parts. You were meant to be loved as a whole.

Her touch is tender but her fierce heart is untamed. She doesn’t know how to love gently. She will drown you with her unyielding passion.

You didn’t know how to let the wild rise in me. You thought it was your job to tame me.

Life is just another beast you were meant to tame, and there is no one better for the job, other than you.

Tame the savageness of man and make gentle the life of this world.

Tame birds sing of freedom. Wild birds fly.

Laughing all the way to the bank, I spray flames. They cannot tame or placate the monster.

If you want to be a good saddler, saddle the worst horse; for if you can tame one, you can tame all.
