Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie: "Racism should never have happened and so you don't get a cookie for reducing it."

Sometimes, you just can't have what you want, but it doesn't mean that you can never have it. Everything takes place at the right time.

Sometimes you're not given what you want because something better is planned for you instead.

I can’t afford to hate anyone. I don’t have that kind of time.
