“I am so tired of waiting.
Aren’t you,
for the world to become good
and beautiful and kind?
Let us take a knife
and cut the world in two—
and see what worms are eating
at the rind.”
― Good Morning, Revolution: Uncollected Social Protest Writings

“أنا أستقيل من الإنسانية. لم أعد أريد أن أكون, ولم أعد قادرا على أن أكون -إنسانا. ماذا سأفعل؟ أخدم الأنظمة الإجتماعية والسياسية؟, أسود حياة إمرأة ؟ أتصيد نقاط الضعف في النظم الفلسفية, أناضل من أجل القيم الأخلاقية والجمالية؟ كل ذلك هراء. أنبذ إنسانيتي , حتى وان كنت سأجد نفسي وحيدا. ولكن أنا وحيد على كل حال في هذا العالم الذي لم أعد أنتظر منه أي شيء.”
