Quote by Corazon Aquino

I've reached a point in life where it's no longer necessary to try to impress. If they like me the way I am, that's good. If they don't, that's too bad.

I've reached a point in life where it's no longer necessary

Summary

This quote speaks to reaching a stage of self-acceptance and confidence, where the opinion and validation of others are no longer the driving force. It signifies a shift in focus from seeking external approval to embracing one's true self. The individual recognizes that authenticity is more important than attempting to impress or conform to the expectations of others, and ultimately realizes that if people appreciate them for who they genuinely are, it is a positive outcome, while any rejection is seen as a loss that does not deter their self-worth.

My desire, my sincere and heartfelt desire is to rip that surprisingly sheer garment from your body, toss you onto that bed, and indeed ravish you from head to toe. I wish to make love to you until you are too exhausted to do so much as stand without support. Until you call out my name in your dreams and reach for me in your sleep. Until you can think of no one and nothing beyond the touch of my hand, the caress of my lips.
