“Gradually the waiting began to feel less like waiting and more like this was simply what life was: the distracting tasks undertaken while the thing you are waiting for continues not to happen.”
Sally Rooney, Conversations with Friends

Tressie McMillan Cottom
“But if I believe that I can become beautiful, I become an economic subject. My desire becomes a marker.”
Tressie McMillan Cottom, Thick: And Other Essays

“Beauty isn't actually what you look like; beauty is the preferences that reproduce the existing social order.”
Tressie McMillan Cottom, Thick: And Other Essays

Rebecca Solnit
“You could be erased a little so that there was less of you, less confidence, less freedom, or your rights could be eroded, your body invaded so that it was less and less yours, you could be rubbed out altogether, and none of those possibilities seemed particularly remote. All the worst things that happened to other women because they were women could happen to you because you were a woman. Even if you weren’t killed, something in you was, your sense of freedom, equality, confidence”
Rebecca Solnit, Recollections of My Nonexistence
