“Am I in love? --yes, since I am waiting. The other one never waits. Sometimes I want to play the part of the one who doesn't wait; I try to busy myself elsewhere, to arrive late; but I always lose at this game. Whatever I do, I find myself there, with nothing to do, punctual, even ahead of time. The lover's fatal identity is precisely this: I am the one who waits.”
― Roland Barthes, A Lover's Discourse: Fragments

“The worst loneliness is to not be comfortable with yourself.”
― Mark Twain

“One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman.”
― Simone de Beauvoir, The Second Sex
