Summary

This quote emphasizes that labels, which are typically used to categorize and simplify things, should not be applied to people.

Instead, people should be embraced for their unique qualities and experiences, recognizing that everyone is complex and multifaceted, and cannot be simply reduced to a label. It challenges us to move beyond limited perceptions and preconceived notions about others and embrace their individuality.

Feelings that simultaneously exalt and suffocate.
