“I love the story like I loved the dance studio, the bar, the hills surrounding the farmhouse. It's okay, I've learned, to love the things that make you, even if they are also the things that unmake you.”

“Those who know her know that beneath her anger is tenderness, and beneath her tenderness is fury.”

“But I have reasons to feel forever grateful to my fake teenage girlfriends, for they taught me about junk food, and they taught me how to be feminine. Smuggled in their blossoming Love's Baby Soft-scented bosoms, I learned how to approximate female—how to talk, how to walk, how to dance, how to flip your hair. How to part your lips as for a kiss but not for a bite of food. How to end your sentences in a question. How to twitch your hips as you left a room. Why to laugh when you feel like screaming. Over trays of Bonnie Bell Lipsmackers and mountains of cooling fries, I learned that being female is as prefab, thoughtless, soulless and abjectly capitalist as a Big Mac. It's not important that it's real. It's only important that it's tasty.”

“A word can be like a cellar door. Just a few steps and you're in a dark place.”

“We were living in a country being screened in slow motion and sometimes black and white, where the only things that weren't an uphill struggle were a smile, making love and dreaming. That's why we're always smiling here in Cuba, why we make love and dream all the time.”
