Book cover for On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century
Watching televised news is sometimes little more than looking at someone who is also looking at a picture. We take this collective trance to be normal. We have slowly fallen into it.

Caroline Knapp
“And it does, at least for a little while. It melts down the pieces of us that hurt or feel distress; it makes room for some other self to emerge, a version that’s new and improved and decidedly less conflicted. And after a while it becomes central to the development of that version, as integral to forward motion as the accelerator on a car. Without the drink you are version A. With the drink, version B. And you can’t get from A to B without the right equipment.”
Caroline Knapp, Drinking: A Love Story

Laurie Penny
“Those who are so eager for women and girls to go back to the kitchen might think again about just what it is we might be up to in there. You can plan a lot of damage from a kitchen. It’s also where the knives are kept.”
Laurie Penny

“We live in a culture that values logic and rationality. Bodily experiences can make us uncomfortable. We have built elaborate walls between our minds and our bodies.”
Cynthia Gabriel, Natural Hospital Birth: The Best of Both Worlds

Caroline Knapp
“Over the years I’ve come to think of memories as tiny living things, microorganisms that swim through the brain until they’ve found the right compartment in which to settle down and rest. If the compartment isn’t available, if there’s no proper label for the memory, it takes up residence somewhere else, gets lodged in a corner and gnaws at you periodically, cropping up at odd times, or in dreams.”
Caroline Knapp, Drinking: A Love Story

David Sedaris
“I’m pretty sure I could tumble down all the stairs in the Empire State Building, naked, with a greased-up pepper grinder in each hand, and a box of candles around my neck, and still end up in the lobby with an empty rectum.”
David Sedaris, Themes and Variations
