“And forget God and religion
For all they do is represent fantasies of men
That perpetuate hatred to women and gays—
I want a FEMALE GODDESS
I want a lesbian goddess
I want a homosexual god
I want a black god
I want a brown god
I want a red goddess
I want a yellow god
I want a god in the image of the real humans here.”
― Karen Finley

“there was Elisha, speaking from the �oor, and his father, silent, at his back. In his heart there was a sudden yearning tenderness for holy Elisha; desire, sharp and awful as a re�ecting knife, to usurp the body of Elisha, and lie where Elisha lay; to speak in tongues, as Elisha spoke, and, with that authority, to confound his father. Yet this had not been the moment; it was as far back as he could go, but the secret, the turning, the abysmal drop was farther back, in darkness. As he cursed his father, as he loved Elisha, he had, even then, been weeping; he had already passed his moment, was already under the power, had been struck, and was going down.”
― James Baldwin, Go Tell It on the Mountain

“The only thing that makes life possible is permanent, intolerable uncertainty: not knowing what comes next.”
