Ocean Vuong
It is no accident, Ma, that the comma resembles a fetus— that curve of continuation. We were all once inside our mothers, saying with our entire curved and silenced selves, more, more, more. I want to insist that are being alive is beautiful enough to be worthy of replication. And so what? So what if all I ever made of my life was more of it?
Ocean Vuong, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous

Simone de Beauvoir
On ne naît pas femme: on le devient.
