“...writing a novel is buttering warm toast, while writing a history is herding porcupines with your elbows.”
― Thomas King, The Inconvenient Indian: A Curious Account of Native People in North America

“I love Stephen King as much as any red rum drinking American, but I resent the fact that I, the bookseller, am his bitch.”
― Caroline Kepnes, You

“Indians were made for film. Indians were exotic and erotic. All those feathers, all that face paint, the breast plates, the bone chokers, the skimpy loincloths, not to mention the bows and arrows and spears, the war cries, the galloping horses, the stern stares, and the threatening grunts. We hunted buffalo, fought the cavalry, circled wagon trains, fought the cavalry, captured White women, fought the cavalry, scalped homesteaders, fought the cavalry. And don't forget the drums and the wild dances where we got all sweaty and lathered up, before we rode off to fight the cavalry.”
― Thomas King, The Inconvenient Indian: A Curious Account of Native People in North America

“Good night, chubby baby
I can't rock you no more
I'm sorry, chubby baby
But my arms are getting sore
Sleep tight, chubby baby
And please don't get me wrong
You're a perfect sized baby
So never accept fakey beauty standards or develop unhealthy body issues...
... from this dumb song”
― Brian K. Vaughan, Saga, Volume 8
