Naomi Hirahara
“[Mas] bowled well enough to know you could handle a split effectively in either of two ways. If you are right-handed, tap the left pin gently on the left side so that it pushes down the right pin. Or else bang the right pin hard enough so that it ricochets from the back to the left. Beginners, on the other hand, don't know about these things. They usually release the ball right down the middle. It is no wonder they end up hitting nothing.”
Naomi Hirahara, Summer of the Big Bachi

H.P. Lovecraft
“The time would be easy to know, for then mankind would have become as the Great Old Ones; free and wild and beyond good and evil, with laws and morals thrown aside and all men shouting and killing and revelling in joy. Then the liberated Old Ones would teach them new ways to shout and kill and revel and enjoy themselves, and all the earth would flame with a holocaust of ecstasy and freedom.”
H.P. Lovecraft, The Call of Cthulhu and Other Mythos Tales

“The only way we are able to endure pain is by holding on to the knowledge that it will someday end.”
Katya Zamolodchikova, Working Girls: Trixie & Katya's Guide to Professional Womanhood

Naomi Hirahara
“Mas had seen photographs and video footage of the skeletal remains of the Atomic Bomb Dome, the building that miraculously survived the blast, and of the Sadako monument, her arms stretched out, holding a giant origami crane above her head. All of these memorials had been either preserved or produced after his time. They were for future generations, the ones who hadn't experienced what could happen in a split second. Giant waves and the shaking of the ground could still destroy cities, but that was at the hands of Mother Nature. It was entirely different when the engine of destruction was human— different because it calculated and planned for reasons both good and evil. But when that power was unleashed, who would it touch? It touched them all—the highest of the high and the lowest of the low. And even more frightening, it sent out a sickness that polluted your body, mind, and soul, and maybe also the generations to come.”
Naomi Hirahara, Hiroshima Boy

Devon  Price
“When society first starts flirting with accepting a marginalized group, that acceptance is often wrapped up in a born this way type narrative. For example, in the early 2000s, many straight allies claimed to support gay people because being gay wasn't a choice, and we couldn't help being the way that we are. There was a lot of pop science writing at that time exploring the search for the "gay gene," and suggesting that certain hormone exposures in the womb might predispose a fetus to being gay. Today we don't have conversations about the biological causes of gayness very much anymore. In the United States at least, being gay has started becoming accepted enough that queer people don't have to justify our existence by saying that we can't help but be this way. If someone were to choose to be gay, that wouldn't be a problem, because being gay is good. Similarly, Autistic people deserve acceptance not because we can't help but have the brains we have, but because being Autistic is good.”
Devon Price, Unmasking Autism: Discovering the New Faces of Neurodiversity
