“Art has no obligation to evolve but it has a powerful incentive to do so. Art that is static, that captures a dead moment, is nothing. It is, at best, nostalgia; at worst, it can be a blight on our sense of who we are, a shame we pack away. Artists who refuse to listen, participate, and change along with the world around them are not being silenced or punished by censorious college sophomores, they are letting obsolescence devour them voluntarily. Political correctness is just the inexorable turn of the gear. Falling behind is preventable.”
Lindy West, The Witches Are Coming

“Someone will always pop up to say, "You would be more effective if you were nicer." "You would have a more receptive audience if you adjusted your tone." "You catch more flies with honey." Well, I don't want flies. The most likable woman in the world is crawling with fucking flies.”
Lindy West, The Witches Are Coming

Kiese Laymon
“And don’t fight when you’re angry. Think when you’re angry. Write when you’re angry. Read when you’re angry.”
Kiese Laymon, Heavy

Roxane Gay
“Just because you survive something does not mean you are strong.”
Roxane Gay, Bad Feminist: Essays

José Esteban Muñoz
“Queerness is not yet here. Queerness is an ideality. Put another way, we are not yet queer, but we can feel it as the warm illumination of a horizon imbued with potentiality. We have never been queer, yet queerness exists for us as an ideality that can be distilled from the past and used to imagine a future. The future is queerness's domain. (p. 1)”
José Esteban Muñoz, Cruising Utopia: The Then and There of Queer Futurity
