Reading for the 2nd time
read in August 2001
“Enkidu, my brother, whom I loved so dearly, who accompanied me through every danger-- the fate of mankind has overwhelmed him. For six days I would not let him be buried, thinking, 'If my grief is violent enough, perhaps he will come back to life again.”

“If you can take effective action, do so. If you can't, then make room for your discomfort, de-fuse from your worries, and engage in doing something meaningful, here, and now.”

“Le corps nu d'une femme trans, c'est pour vous *sexuel*, impossible à ne pas objectifier ni à damner par la gêne ou la moquerie – mais la perversité est dans vos yeux.
Ce corps nu n'est qu'un corps.”
― Humaine

“He loved his country very dearly, sir, but he did not serve it, or you. He served the master I serve.'

As I spoke I did not know if what I said was true. True in part; an aspect of the truth. It would be no less true to say that Estraven’s acts had risen out of pure personal loyalty, a sense of responsibility and friendship towards one single human being, myself. Nor would that be the whole truth.”

“they say that when you get old, as I am, your body slows down. I don’t believe it. No, I think that is quite wrong. I have a theory that you do not slow down at all, but that life slows down for you. You understand me? Everything becomes languid, as it were, and you can notice so much more when things are in slow motion. The things you see! The extraordinary things that happen all around you, that you never even suspected before! It is really a delightful adventure, quite delightful!”
