Quotes by Kenji Yoshino (?)

“No one has written adequately of what happens when enough of the body's naked surface is pressed against another human being's. It is a slow dismantling of ego, a suspension of the instinct to distinguish Me from Not Me.”
― Kenji Yoshino, Covering: The Hidden Assault on Our Civil Rights

“Perhaps none of us assumes romantic love to be a birthright. Yet the confidence it will come surely admits of degrees. Growing up, I assumed I was the word that rhymed with none other-- like "silver" or "orange," glistering bright, but sonnet foiling, and always solitary traveling. Somewhere love happened, plausible as a catch of distant conversation. But not in the self's way.”
― Kenji Yoshino, Covering: The Hidden Assault on Our Civil Rights

“Growing up, women were not the mystery—I knew how they worked, or thought I did. Men were the mystery, obscure in their violences and their lusts and their ability to catch. Yet for many years I didn’t try to conform to “straight-acting” norms. I didn’t think I could—and perhaps achieved an integrity in that surrender. Ironically,”
― Kenji Yoshino, Covering: The Hidden Assault on Our Civil Rights
