“I swear, people cannot make up their minds about who are supposed to be the clueless infants who can’t live without supervision: men or women.”
― Xiran Jay Zhao, Iron Widow

“Ur tankar och känslor föds ord och handlingar. Hur skulle tankar och känslor då kunna vara den enskildes ensak? (...) Hittills har det bara inte varit möjligt att kontrollera dem - men nu är alltså medlet funnet.”
― Karin Boye, Kallocain

“This getting up early,” he thought, “makes a man quite idiotic.”
― Franz Kafka, The Metamorphosis

“Sometimes, I used to sit under the sky, on a clear night, and gaze at the stars, saying, in my croaky voice: “Lord, if you’re up there somewhere, and you aren’t too busy, come and say a few words to me, because I’m very lonely and it would make me so happy.” Nothing happened. So I reckon that humanity— which I wonder whether I belong to —really had a very vivid imagination.”
― Jacqueline Harpman, I Who Have Never Known Men
