Guy Hocquenghem
“Rather than being lovers in order to breathe, we are queer in order to escape asphyxia.”
Guy Hocquenghem, The Screwball Asses

David Wojnarowicz
“In loving him, I saw a cigarette between the fingers of a hand, smoke blowing backwards into the room and sputtering planes diving low through the clouds. In loving him, I saw men encouraging each other to lay down their arms. In loving him, I saw small-town laborers creating excavations that other men spend their lives trying to fill. In loving him, I saw moving films of stone buildings; I saw a hand in prison dragging snow in from the sill. In loving him, I saw great houses being erected that would soon slide into the waiting and stirring seas. I saw him freeing me from the silences of the interior life.”
David Wojnarowicz, Close to the Knives: A Memoir of Disintegration

Patti Smith
“Why do we write? A chorus erupts.
Because we cannot simply live.”
Patti Smith, Devotion

Virginia Woolf
“for it was not knowledge but unity that she desired, not inscriptions on tablets, nothing that could be written in any language known to men, but intimacy itself, which is knowledge”
Virginia Woolf, To the Lighthouse
