“But many of us seek community solely to escape the fear of being alone. Knowing how to be solitary is central to the art of loving. When we can be alone, we can be with others without using them as a means of escape.”
Bell Hooks, All About Love: New Visions

Meena Kandasamy
“The
reception reinforced my
perception that, to a Western
audience, writers like me are
interesting because – we are from a place
where horrible things
happen, or, – horrible things have
happened to us, or, – a combination of the
above. No one discusses process
with us.”
Meena Kandasamy, Exquisite Cadavers

“If you don’t fight for what you want, then don’t cry for what you lost.
Likewise,
Nothing depends on luck, everything depends on work,
Because Even Luck has to work.”
