Why are you afraid of spirits, Luciana? Have you not met the fools on this earth?

How is it fair that a person goes through all that - and STILL ends up in the emergency room? What's even the point of trying to be 'good' or do the right thing anymore? When everyone else just gets to SUCK and BE FINE!

Colombians are so funny, dude . . . Your own mother could stab you in the face, and they'd still be like, Es tu mamá! Solo tienes una!

Sorry if I'm out of breath. It's all the running away from our problems. Just kidding, lol.

She grew up thinking that money was the only thing that people needed to have a family. And she wasn't entirely wrong. But she mistook it for being the most important.

I'm just saying it's remarkable that these people unsubscribe from stereotypes the second they're no longer convenient for them.

No, Mari. I'm not saying 'YoU'rE gAy' if you do those things. I'm just saying it's remarkable that these people unsubscribe from stereotypes the second they're no longer convenient for them.

They're all about loving thy neighbor, yet the bigotry oozes from their pores!

Well she should 'care' more often then. Not just when the news says there's an emergency.

[Her] grip on my hand was making me lose my grip on everything else. I wanted to tell her to let go, to give me my head back. I wanted to hold on forever.

Pity the introvert with the face of a therapist or a kindergarten teacher.

But one does not have to understand anything. It is enough to simply go on.

To his surprise, he was discovering that being loved could be just as productive of anxiety as the lack of it was.

Just because Jim Crow was dead didn't mean racism was.

I had grown up in the American South - a weird, tropical version of it, filled with transplants from other parts of the country, but still, the South. But I'd never really confronted its ugly past. I'd never been forced to; I was a wealthy white kid in a mostly white town. I felt ashamed that I had never really reckoned with it, never imagined what a simple road trip through my own state might've been like for anyone who didn't look like me. And not just in the past. Just because Jim Crow was dead didn't mean racism was. Hell, in some parts of the country, those laws were still officially on the books.
