"I just read the last story in the book, and it was rather nice. There are a lot of remarkable people whose stories are documented here." — Apr 25, 2018 09:16PM

"This is actually pretty interesting. It's a bit too abstract for my taste, but there's something that appeals to me about the idea of trying to categorize actions and create a framework for judging what we should do and why. I guess you could argue that it's too reductionist, but it appeals to how I want to think about these issues." — Feb 04, 2018 09:03AM

“I don’t care what your excuse is, I don’t care what you think God told you to do, if you are in the business of closing children’s minds and obliterating their capacity to imagine, and depriving them of a capacity to laugh, then you are a criminal. Maybe not under the law, but under any decent system of morality.
Shame on anyone who brainwashes a child and attacks their individual liberty and deprives them of the freedom that is the very definition of a human being. Shame.”

“It seemed to me that life was a giant ice skating rink, and I was the only one who didn’t have skates. Most people fear death. I don’t. I’m only afraid of not living. I don’t want to be the one behind the ice rink fence, watching other people having fun.”

“I believe it’s incredibly important to write against [racial] stereotypes. If we give in and make sure that all black women characters are asexual, gentle, and kind we wind up with another set of stereotypes.”
