“It is important to understand that mythology has always been malleable, open to interpretation, and used by individuals and groups across time to say different things. The ancient Greek themselves understood their myths as such. A great number of classical myths that have survived from antiquity in fact possess a number of different, if nog contradictory, versions within the historical records.”
― Jean Menzies, All the Violet Tiaras: Queering the Greek Myths

“You did not let me keep my name, so I will strip you of yours. In this world you are what I say you are, and I say you are a ghost, a long night's fever dream that I have finally woken up from. I say you are the smoke-wisp memory of a flame, thawing ice suffering under an early spring sun, a chalk ledger of depts being wiped clean. I say you do not have a name.”
― S.T. Gibson, A Dowry of Blood
