" If I could give something to Fleurette⁠—if I could give her one silent gift from a mother she didn't know she had⁠—it would be this: the realization that we have to be a part of the world in which we live. We don't scurry away when we're in trouble, or when someone else is. We don't run and hide. "

― Amy Stewart , Girl Waits with Gun (Kopp Sisters, #1)
