"And they roared as loud as thunder and carried lightening in the strike of their cruelty, but what are thunder and lightening to fearless girls who are used to carrying entire storms and hurricanes in their fingertips?" Nikita Gill

"Defined by no man, you are your own story, blazing through the world, turning history into herstory. And when they dare to tell you about all the things you cannot be, you smile and tell them, 'I am both war and woman, and you cannot stop me.' " Nikita Gill

"I have gunpowder in my chest instead of a heart now, and it escapes my lips like a bullet with your name on it. Soft people become dangerous, when you destroy the things they hold dearest." Nikita Gill

"Damaged people love you like you are a crime scene before a crime has even been committed. They keep their running shoes besides their souls every night, one eye open in case things change as they sleep. Their backs are always tense as though waiting to fight a sudden storm that might engulf them. Because damaged people have already seen hell. And damaged people understand that every evil demon that exists down there was once a kind angel before it fell." Nikita Gill
