Chanel Miller Quote: “Preventing assault is so much cheaper than trying to address it after the fact.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “This was not one bad sentence. This was the best we could hope for.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “Why is it so hard to hear a story where the victim is cared for, justice properly served? Then came Judge Aquilina. I’d never questioned the short time limit I was given to read my statement, until Judge Aquilina made time for one hundred and sixty-nine statements. She made it clear each one was important. She invited restoration and compassion into a space I had associated only with torture.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “Somehow the victim never wins.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “I have created a self inside the suffering.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “Rage activates, but too much of it cripples.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “I was not homesick, as I was not ready to return home, but I felt the unease of being adrift, of having no footholds in the world.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “In other blackouts, I was responsible for acting a fool. But waking up to an empty McDonald’s bag and crumbs on my chest was different than waking up with dried blood and clothes missing.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “The goal should never be to insult, it should only be to teach, to expose larger issues so that we may learn something.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “This bothered me, this feigned politeness, a baseless cordiality.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “Something else was happening that I’d recognized in the hearing; the frequency of the word right. He’d planted answers in his questions rather than leave them open ended: Right? Isn’t that right? Correct? Right? To an observer, it would seem he was just verifying facts. But so much of it had not been right.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “My job is to observe, feel, document, report. What am I learning and seeing that other people can’t see? What doorways does my suffering lead to?”
Chanel Miller Quote: “He stated that when he saw Deputy Shaw approach, he made the decision to run. While running, he heard the verbal commands to stop, but continued evading. He said it was a split-second decision and he regretted making it. Deputy Shaw would be the one to photograph my body three months after this incident.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “Society often fails to wrap its head around the fact that these truths often coexist, they are not mutually exclusive. Bad qualities can hide inside a good person.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “The girl running arms wide into the ocean is gone. In her place is a woman wrapped in two coats, staring at the black water, mistaking lumps of seaweed for dormant bodies, the stones for crouching men.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “Each time a survivor resurfaced, people were quick to say what does she want, why did it take her so long, why now, why not then, why not faster. But damage does not stick to deadlines. If she emerges, why don’t we ask her how it was possible she lived with that hurt for so long, ask who taught her to never uncover it.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “I watched a man approach Alaleh, a neon-orange sticker on his shirt that said JURY and thought it was funny jury members were walking around labeled like Chiquita bananas.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “When I speak in opposition, I am grateful my voice is uncensored. I do not take my freedom of speech, my abundance of books, my access to education, my ease of first language for granted.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “Women have been trained to notice micro movements. To scan and anticipate all subsequent actions, constantly measuring how far threatening words are from realities. We are tasked with defending ourselves in every imaginable scenario, planning escape routes, walking with keys between knuckles, a natural instinct in our day to day routines.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “Mama bought 4 different kinds of ice cream for you!”
Chanel Miller Quote: “I learned it was expensive to be assaulted.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “I did know that I wasn’t going to let the fear of what men might do dictate what the rest of my life was going to be.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “Denying darkness does not bring anyone closer to the light.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “Remember who you are, what you like about yourself.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “If she emerges, why don’t we ask her how it was possible she lived with that hurt for so long, ask who taught her to never uncover it.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “Assault buries the self. We lose sight of how and when we are allowed to occupy space. We are made to doubt our abilities, disparaged when we speak.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “I pulled out my small red notebook. I illuminated the pages with my phone, and wrote, I feel like I’ve already won. It was a small nod to myself; I had done the impossible, showed up. Those who watched me cry on the stand might have perceived me as fragile, but I believed it to be the quiet beginning of my strength.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “For so long I believed history was a thick book you carried around in your backpack, not something you could create.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “If you get through this night, you are promised to survive all the days ahead.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “One man could have kept me from awakening millions. Question who your realities are being written by. Reexamine who dictates it. Who decides you are important. The judge was not God.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “But I also knew this feeling would not be infinite. As soon as the sun came up, the worst would be behind me.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “I began to belong more to my present than my past. I was no longer trying to get somewhere, only asking myself, Are you improving? Sometimes the answer was not today. Sometimes I was regressing. But the voice in my head was now gentler. Whatever the answer, I was patient and understanding.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “My purpose will always be greater than my fear.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “The thing about victims is that they wake up. Maybe you thought I’d never be able to go through with this.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “When we think of people fitting together, we may think of a man inserting himself into a woman, but there are many ways we overlook. The way ears are thin as construction paper, allowing me to press the side of my face against his chest. Fingers can be interlaced without getting tangled. One hand can create a tiny chair for one chin. We are designed to bend and fold, to comfort ourselves and each other. We have so many small parts that need tending to.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “I read comments that laughed at my pain. I remember feeling helpless, terrified, humiliated, I cried like I’ve never cried before. But I remember the attorney’s still shoulders as guilty was read. I know Brock slept ninety days in a stiff cot in a jail cell. The judge will never step foot in a courtroom again. The appellate attorney’s claims were shut down. One by one, they became powerless, fell away, and when the dust settled, I looked around to see who was left. Only Emily Doe.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “If I have forgiven him, it’s not because I’m holy. It’s because I need to clear a space inside myself where hard feelings can be put to rest.”
Chanel Miller Quote: “History is where you will find people who have been through what you’re experiencing. Not only been there but survived it. Not only survived it but changed it.”
