Maurice Sendak
“Let the wild rumpus start!”
Maurice Sendak, Where the Wild Things Are

Virginia Woolf
“Yes, I deserve a spring–I owe nobody nothing.”
Virginia Woolf, A Writer's Diary

Bonnie Burstow
“Often father and daughter look down on mother (woman) together. They exchange meaningful glances when she misses a point. They agree that she is not bright as they are, cannot reason as they do. This collusion does not save the daughter from the mother’s fate.”
Bonnie Burstow, Radical Feminist Therapy: Working in the Context of Violence

Ray Bradbury
“Every morning I jump out of bed and step on a landmine. The landmine is me. After the explosion, I spend the rest of the day putting the pieces together.”
Ray Bradbury, Zen in the Art of Writing: Releasing the Creative Genius Within You

Carmen Maria Machado
“you can be hurt by people who look just like you. Not only can it happen, it probably will, because the world is full of hurt people who hurt people. Even if the dominant culture considers you an anomaly, that doesn’t mean you can’t be common, common as fucking dirt.”
Carmen Maria Machado, In the Dream House
