“I went to bed that night in a kind of daze, slept as if I had been drugged and in the morning awoke to a new world—a world of excitement—a world in which everything was fierce and piercing, everything charged with strange emotions, clothed with extraordinary mysteries, and in which I myself seemed to exist only as an inner core of palpitating fire.”
Dorothy Strachey, Olivia

Pat Barker
“Grief's only ever as deep as the love it's replaced.”
Pat Barker, The Silence of the Girls

Melissa Broder
“I felt that our kissing could sustain the ritual of women loving women for eons to come.”
Melissa Broder, Milk Fed

Shirley Jackson
“If you don't like my peaches, don't shake my tree.”
Shirley Jackson

Melissa Broder
“Expect nothing. The simplicity of that directive, its bare bones, self-contained power was intoxicating. Expect nothing. It was so clean, so potent.
It was a phrase you'd associate with a person who didn't need anything from anyone; a closed system. An automaton. I wanted to be that person. I wanted to be that automaton.”
Melissa Broder, Milk Fed
