“I want to take myself apart into something else, and if I cannot do that, I want to destroy every part of it that could ever be used against me.”
― Andrew Joseph White, The Spirit Bares Its Teeth

“We are the same species. We're all human. It's not that people cannot understand me; it's simply that most of them don't want to”
― Andrew Joseph White, The Spirit Bares Its Teeth

“I want to peel off all my skin, if only so I could be anything other than a naked body, something horrifying instead of vulnerable. Nobody looks at a pig corpse and thinks it could be made beautiful.”
― Andrew Joseph White, The Spirit Bares Its Teeth

“It should be noted that I do not define my manhood through my love of women. There are lots of men who do so: their hunger to dominate feminine things, their power over their wives and daughters, are the building blocks of their maleness. That is not me. Yes, I could love a man if I ever found one who accepts me as I am, and I’ve dreamed of being so lucky—but I love women too. I love women as men are expected to, but the way only one who has ever experienced womanhood can.”
