Jeanette Winterson
“There are many forms of love and affection, some people can spend their whole lives together without knowing each other's names. Naming is a difficult and time-consuming process; it concerns essences, and it means power. But on the wild nights who can call you home? Only the one who knows your name.”
Jeanette Winterson, Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit

Erving Goffman

Erving Goffman, The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life

Hunter S. Thompson
“You better take care of me Lord, if you don't you're gonna have me on your hands.”
Hunter S. Thompson, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas: A Savage Journey to the Heart of the American Dream

Victor Villaseñor
“The beginning of all wisdom is to understand that you don't know. To know is the enemy of all learning. To be sure is the enemy of wisdom.”
Victor Villasenor, Burro Genius: A Memoir

Dorothy Allison
“People don't do right because of the fear of God or love of him. You do the right thing because the world doesn't make sense if you don't." (145)”
