Quotes by Sally Hanan  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“If you've just left a place of difficulty, don't then move into the shadows, alone with your thoughts. Spend your time with friends, or even just people who care about you. It might feel more self-protective to isolate yourself, but the reality is that you need to let the light in.”
Sally Hanan, Fix Yourself: In Jesus

“Sometimes the air is so thick with your judgment that its clouds obstruct your vision.”
Sally Hanan, Fix Yourself: In Jesus

“There's no bonus to seeing life through a dirty lens, even if it feels more real.”
Sally Hanan, Fix Yourself: In Jesus
