" People will always try to steal
your power. When you do well, they’ll say it’s only because you’re rich and your parents are big shots. People who care about you will try to steal
your power, too, but they’ll go about it differently. When you fail at something, they’ll try to make you feel better by saying that nobody’s good at
everything, and you shouldn’t be so hard on yourself. They might tell you not to feel bad about screwing up a math test because math’s hard for girls.
Or they’ll say you shouldn’t worry so much about injustice in the world because you’re only one person. And even though they mean well, they’ll be
making you less than what you can be. "
