“In our culture privacy is often confused with secrecy. Open, honest, truth-telling individuals value privacy. We all need spaces where we can be alone with thoughts and feelings - where we can experience healthy psychological autonomy and can choose to share when we want to. Keeping secrets is usually about power, about hiding and concealing information.”
― Bell Hooks, All About Love: New Visions

“I pop a beautiful sentence into my mouth and suck it like a fruit drop.”
― Bohumil Hrabal

“Remember, care is a dimension of love, but simply giving care does not mean we are loving.”
― Bell Hooks, All About Love: New Visions

“A wonderful fact to reflect upon, that every human creature is constituted to be that profound secret and mystery to every other.”
