“L'immaginazione immersiva genera nel cervello le stesse reazioni dell'esperienza sensibile. È reale, cioè produce effetti di realtà, qualunque esperienza che attiva un mutamento nella persona che la vive.”
― God Save the Queer: Catechismo femminista

“-Secondo te qual è la qualità più importante per una persona?
-Il senso dell'umorismo. Se hai il senso dell'umorismo-non l'ironia, o il sarcasmo, che sono un'altra cosa- non ti prendi sul serio. E allora non puoi essere cattivo, non puoi essere stupido o non puoi essere volgare. Se ci pensi comprende quasi tutto.”
― Testimone inconsapevole

“You won’t understand what I mean now, but someday you will: the only trick of friendship, I think, is to find people who are better than you are—not smarter, not cooler, but kinder, and more generous, and more forgiving—and then to appreciate them for what they can teach you, and to try to listen to them when they tell you something about yourself, no matter how bad—or good—it might be, and to trust them, which is the hardest thing of all. But the best, as well.”
― A Little Life

“I lived through those books, songs, television shows, and movies - the way the characters talked, looked, acted. I thought that could translate over into reality, that I could make their world my world. I wanted so badly to run away from my life. But you can't bury yourself in other people's pages and scenes. You aren't David Copperfield or Tom Sawyer. Those love songs on the radio might speak to you, but they're not about you or the person you pine for. Life is not a John Hughes film.”
