José Esteban Muñoz
“The here and now is a prison house. We must strive, in the face of the here and now’s totalising rendering of reality, to think and feel a then and there. Some will say that all we have are the pleasures of this moment, but we must never settle for that minimal transport; we must dream and enact new and better pleasures, other ways of being in the world, and ultimately new worlds.”
José Esteban Muñoz, Cruising Utopia: The Then and There of Queer Futurity

Sally Rooney
“I feel so frightened of being hurt - not of the suffering, which I know I can handle, but the indignity of being open to it.”
Sally Rooney , Beautiful World, Where Are You

Sally Rooney
“No one can be independent of other people completely, so why not give up the attempt, she thought, go running in the other direction, depend on people for everything, allow them to depend on you, why not.”
Sally Rooney, Normal People

Donna J. Haraway
“The cyborg would not recognize the Garden of Eden; it is not made of mud and cannot dream of returning to dust.”
Donna Haraway

Italo Calvino
“Io, invece, in mezzo a tanto fervore d’interezza, mi sentivo sempre più triste e manchevole. Alle volte uno si crede incompleto ed è soltanto giovane.”
Italo Calvino, Il visconte dimezzato
