“I think I am ready for that. I think I am ready to be met.”

“I am not sure I am ready to know what I think about that, so I dare not write it out.”

“I am not ready to think of him as either insane or evil, to consider in full how I could love and have a child with such a person. I am not ready to think about anything, except ways in which this may still be averted.”

“I am a woman. I matter. I am worthy. I am ready to conquer the world.”
