John Green
“You gave me a forever within the numbered days, and I'm grateful.”
John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o
“The condition of women in a nation is the real measure of its progress.”
Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o, Wizard of the Crow

Alexander Pope
“Blessed is he who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed.”
Alexander Pope

Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o
“I believe that black has been oppressed by white; female by male; peasant by landlord; and worker by lord of capital. It follows from this that the black female worker and peasant is the most oppressed. She is oppressed on account of her color like all black people in the world; she is oppressed on account of her gender like all women in the world; and she is exploited and oppressed on account of her class like all workers and peasants in the world. Three burdens she has to carry.”
Ngũgĩ wa Thiong’o, Wizard of the Crow

Audre Lorde
“For the master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s house. They may allow us to temporarily beat him at his own game, but they will never enable us to bring about genuine change. Racism and homophobia are real conditions of all our lives in this place and time. I urge each one of us here to reach down into that deep place of knowledge inside herself and touch that terror and loathing of any difference that lives here. See whose face it wears. Then the personal as the political can begin to illuminate all our choices.”
Audre Lorde
