Dorianne Laux
“Death comes to me again, a girl
in a cotton slip, barefoot, giggling.
It’s not so terrible she tells me,
not like you think, all darkness
and silence. There are windchimes
and the smell of lemons, some days
it rains, but more often the air is dry
and sweet. I sit beneath the staircase
built from hair and bone and listen
to the voices of the living. I like it,
she says, shaking the dust from her hair,
especially when they fight, and when they sing.”
Dorianne Laux

Fyodor Dostoevsky
“There are strange friendships: two friends almost want to devour each other, and they spend their entire lives living that way, but meanwhile they cannot part.”
Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Demons

Ilya Kaminsky
“At the trial of God, we will ask: why did you allow all this?
And the answer will be an echo: why did you allow all this?”
Ilya Kaminsky, Deaf Republic

Emily Brontë
“He's more myself than I am. Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.”
Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights

Leslie Feinberg
“You made me ache and you liked that. So did I.”
Leslie Feinberg, Stone Butch Blues
