Joe Abercrombie
“You have to love the small things, when you’ve
nothing else.”
Joe Abercrombie, The Blade Itself / Before They Are Hanged / Last Argument Of Kings

“The only reason they tolerated the transgender community in some of these movements was because we were gung-ho, we were front liners. We didn’t take no shit from nobody. We had nothing to lose. You all had rights. We had nothing to lose. I’ll be the first one to step on any organization, any
politician’s toes if I have to, to get the rights for my community.”
Sylvia Rivera, Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries (STAR): Survival, Revolt, and Queer Antagonist Struggle

Toshio Meronek
“It's not wrong to feel like the world is fucked up being repair, but...you can try to repair what you can, using whatever skills you might have.”
Toshio Meronek, Miss Major Speaks: Conversations with a Black Trans Revolutionary

Toshio Meronek
“You can kill a person, but you can’t kill an idea, and you can’t kill love or hurt.”
Toshio Meronek, Miss Major Speaks: Conversations with a Black Trans Revolutionary

Langston Hughes
“Poets who write mostly about love, roses and moonlight, sunsets and snow, must lead a very quiet life. Seldom, I imagine, does their poetry get them into difficulties. Beauty and lyricism are really related to another world, to ivory towers, to your head in the clouds, feet floating off the earth. Unfortunately, having been born poor--and also colored--in Missouri, I was stuck in the mud from the beginning. Try as I might to float off into the clouds, poverty and Jim Crow would grab me by the heels, and right back on earth I would land.”
Langston Hughes, Good Morning, Revolution: Uncollected Social Protest Writings
