“Suffering so someone else didn't have to suffer. Sacrificing your body for someone else's well being.”

“Being a teenager isn't all that different from being part of someone else's story. There's always someone who thinks they know better than you do”

“That's because you've never been one. You haven't spent years wearing someone else's clothes, taking someone else's name, living in someone else's houses, and working someone else's job to fit in.

“She wondered if this was true of every parent: if, prior to having children, they all used to be someone else.”
