“My chief regret is the reserve of fear in us all that prevents us from loving others and being loved as we should. I sometimes imagine that I might live my life again, now that I know what to treasure and what to pass by....But I would endure any trial to preserve my place as Mrs Sherlock Holmes.”

“For the master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s house. They may allow us to temporarily beat him at his own game, but they will never enable us to bring about genuine change. Racism and homophobia are real conditions of all our lives in this place and time. I urge each one of us here to reach down into that deep place of knowledge inside herself and touch that terror and loathing of any difference that lives here. See whose face it wears. Then the personal as the political can begin to illuminate all our choices.”
