What 1 piece of advice would you give a bright and beautiful young woman in a bad marriage to an emotionally abusive man? She has given up her education and her own dreams, believing she can love him enough to change him. Any quotes, affirmations, thoughts (in one or two lines only please) would be wonderful.

There's an old Russian saying - only the grave will change the hunchback.
You can't change what is not meant to be changed. Accept it, or move on.

You were not raised to be anyone's emotional punching bag.
Discover the love and respect you have for yourself.
Get Out. Now.

Life is short. You are accountable for your life. Good or bad, successful or unsuccessful, happy or sad, fair or unfair you own your life.

you must know and love yourself before you love someone else
you lost yourself when you married this man so you need some alone time to reconnect and get to know yourself.

Leave. Tonight.
Bright, beautiful women don't stay with abusers. Sick, unhealthy ones do.
