“Go Where You Are Loved”

“Guilt is not a response to anger; it is a response to one’s own actions or lack of action. If it leads to change then it can be useful, since it becomes no longer guilt but the beginning of knowledge. Yet all too often, guilt is just another name for impotence, for defensiveness destructive of communication; it becomes a device to protect ignorance and the continuation of things the way they are, the ultimate protection for changelessness.”

– Audre Lorde, The Uses of Anger (1981)

"Fail to plan. Plan to fail"

Do not get addicted to escaping. Face your shit, handle your business, and triumph. No battle was ever won by people who run.
