Charlotte Perkins Gilman
“I don't like to look out of the windows even--there are so many of those creeping women, and they creep so fast.
I wonder if they all come out of that wallpaper as I did?”
Charlotte Perkins Gilman, The Yellow Wallpaper and Other Stories

Lori Deschene
“We can’t hate ourselves into a version of ourselves we can love.”
Lori Deschene

Charles Bukowski
“I walked around the block twice, passed 200 people and failed to see a human being.”
Charles Bukowski, Tales of Ordinary Madness

Charles Bukowski
“This birth thing. And this death thing. Each one had it's turn. We entered alone and we left alone. And most of us lived lonely and frightened and incomplete lives. An incomparable sadness descended up on me. Seeing all that life that must die. Seeing all that life that would first turn to hate, to dementia, to neuroses, to stupidity, to fear, to murder, to nothing - nothing in life and nothing in death.”
Charles Bukowski, Tales of Ordinary Madness

Laura Bates
“When we suggest victims can stop rape, we also (however unintentionally) imply that rape is an inevitable aspect of life rather than an action deliberately carried out by a perpetrator.”
Laura Bates, Everyday Sexism
