George Howe Colt
“When I was growing up my mother used to tell me that the best gift parents could give their children was to have a strong and loving relationship with each other.”
George Howe Colt, The Big House: A Century in the Life of an American Summer Home

“The mothers were the hardest on them, the fathers off to the side. Most of these young men were raised Pentecostal, and Pentecostals just hated gay people. The churches were so powerful and set where the family stood in life. The women had probably seen an example made of someone else, about some smaller defiance. Men can sometimes do the deciding about who is exiled, but it's women who do the day-to-day work of shunning. They knew they'd lose everything if they'd showed mercy to their sons.”
Ruth Coker Burks, All the Young Men: A Memoir of Love, AIDS, and Chosen Family in the American South

Flannery O'Connor
“Everywhere I go I'm asked if I think the university stifles writers. My opinion is that they don't stifle enough of them. There's many a best-seller that could have been prevented by a good teacher.”
Flannery O'Connor

Juliusz Słowacki
“No time to grieve for roses when the forests are burning.”
Juliusz Słowacki

“I wanted them to have a death certificate so people would know that they had lived and they had died — they were here. Because they at least deserved that. They couldn't be "nobody's nothing" after what they had been through.”
Ruth Coker Burks, All the Young Men: A Memoir of Love, AIDS, and Chosen Family in the American South
