Eli Clare
“Laugh and cry and tell stories. Sad stories about bodies stolen, bodies no longer here. Enraging stories about the false images, devastating lies, untold violence. Bold, brash stories about reclaiming our bodies and changing the world.”
Eli Clare, Exile and Pride: Disability, Queerness, and Liberation

Nalo Hopkinson
“I made myself listen to the birds singing squabbles and love songs. Occasionally I heard a war. Sharp mechanical sounds clashed with the nature music. Bells and whistles mashed together in nagging bursts. My new life was calling. I had to get on with it. Body historians, griots of the galaxy, we didn’t diddle ourselves in jungle paradises, we inhabited flesh to gather a genealogy of life. We sought the story behind all the stories.”
Nalo Hopkinson, So Long Been Dreaming: Postcolonial Science Fiction & Fantasy

Sassafras Patterdale
“We turn to books to prove that we exist.”
Sassafras Lowrey

Lucille Clifton
“I am running into a new year and the old years blow back like a wind that I catch in my hair like strong fingers like all my old promises and it will be hard to let go of what I said to myself about myself when I was sixteen and twenty-six and thirty-six but I am running into a new year and I beg what i love and I leave to forgive me.”
Lucille Clifton

Audre Lorde
“What gets me about the United States is that it pretends to be honest and therefore has so little room to move toward hope.”
Audre Lorde, Sister Outsider: Essays and Speeches
