Quotes by Alison Rumfitt (?)

“Sometimes, at the end of everything, the only option you have is to make it worse.”
― Alison Rumfitt, Tell Me I'm Worthless

“Are you a bad person, or do you just have reasonable concerns, are you a bad person, or are you just asking questions? In the crushed heat death you ask how to win a culture war, and when does a culture war become a real war, where is the line that is crossed, is it the spilling of blood and has blood already spilled? It must be a war to be called a war.”
― Alison Rumfitt, Tell Me I'm Worthless

“This tower/factory is haunted, like all workplaces, haunted by the people who have done these same mechanical actions, made the same mechanical statements, cried in the disabled toilets in the middle of every shift, haunted by the feet of every person who has climbed this tower before I have, trying, desperately, not to look over their shoulder, but knowing that there is no escape because the tower doesn’t go on forever and it doesn’t lead to anywhere else.”
― Alison Rumfitt, Tell Me I'm Worthless
