"People do the weirdest things with words, because words serve so many purposes, but above all, words allow people to be who you think you should be. Because that's the way you were taught, because the alternative seems too scary. That's why you use words to soften your conscience, to pull the wool over your own eyes, to minimise, or even deny, something."
"Knowing is so much easier than admitting, or daring to acknowledge."
"Words are everything, as long as we use them for their purpose"

Some of my favourite sentences from Griet Op de Beeck. These shall serve as a gentle reminder for now and for the future.
