Maddy’s quote from Dr. Romantic, Season 3, by Dr Kim: “It’s not other people’s views of you that make you. It's your own views that make you. Praise yourself more and be kind to yourself.”

Jeremy’s quote, from the book This is Me Letting You Go by Heidi Priebe: We don't talk about our huge, overwhelming, most shameful failures because we don't want to admit what they reveal about who we are. But therein lies the choice — you get to decide, after every failure, every defeat, every life-altering mistake — what kind of person you are. What kind of person you've been. And what kind of person you're finally ready to become instead.
