Katherine Angel
“But speech and truth-telling are not inherently emancipatory, and neither speech nor silence is inherently liberating or oppressive...Consent, and its conceit of absolute clarity, places the burden of good sexual interaction on women's behavoir – Woe betide she who does not know herself and speak that knowledge.”
Katherine Angel, Tomorrow Sex Will Be Good Again: Women and Desire in the Age of Consent

Ocean Vuong
“If you were god you would tell them to stop clapping. You would tell them that the most useful thing one can do with empty hands is hold on. But you are not a god.”
Ocean Vuong, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous

Ocean Vuong
“You once told me that the human eye is god's loneliest creation. How so much of the world passes through the pupil and still it holds nothing. The eye, alone in its socket, doesn't even know there's another one, just like it, an inch away, just as hungry, as empty.”
Ocean Vuong, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous

Zadie Smith
“There was an inevitability about the road towards each other which encouraged meandering along the route.”
Zadie Smith, NW

Eve Babitz
“People think you should be in love with other people or your work or justice. I’ve been in love with people and ideas in several cities and learned that the lovers I’ve loved and the ideas I’ve embraced depended on where I was, how cold it was, and what I had to do to be able to stand”
Eve Babitz, Slow Days, Fast Company: The World, the Flesh, and L.A.
