Kate Elizabeth Russell
“The excuses we make for them are outrageous, but they’re nothing compared with the ones we make for ourselves.”
Kate Elizabeth Russell, My Dark Vanessa

Kate Elizabeth Russell
“It’s strange to know that whenever I remember myself at fifteen, I’ll think of this.”
Kate Elizabeth Russell, My Dark Vanessa

Kate Elizabeth Russell
“Because even if I sometimes use the word abuse to describe certain things that were done to me, in someone else’s mouth the word turns ugly and absolute. It swallows up everything that happened.”
Kate Elizabeth Russell, My Dark Vanessa

Kate Elizabeth Russell
“He touched me first, said he wanted to kiss me, told me he loved me. Every first step was taken by him. I don’t feel forced, and I know I have the power to say no, but that isn’t the same as being in charge. But maybe he has to believe that. Maybe there’s a whole list of things he has to believe.”
Kate Elizabeth Russell, My Dark Vanessa

Sigmund Freud
“Men are not gentle creatures who want to be loved, and who at the most can defend themselves if they are attacked; they are, on the contrary, creatures among whose instinctual endowments is to be reckoned a powerful share of aggressiveness. As a result, their neighbor is for them not only a potential helper or sexual object, but also someone who tempts them to satisfy their aggressiveness on him, to exploit his capacity for work without compensation, to use him sexually without his consent, to seize his possessions, to humiliate him, to cause him pain, to torture and to kill him. Homo homini lupus [man is wolf to man]. Who, in the face of all his experience of life and of history, will have the courage to dispute this assertion?”
Sigmund Freud, Civilization and Its Discontents
