“I want to talk. I talk to everybody, and it pisses me off when they interpret to talk back. I sometimes think of offering money to friends to buy their turn in a conversation.”
― Jim Carroll, Forced Entries- The Downtown Diaries: 1971-1973

“Dear David, Are you a Tibetan monk yet? I used to hate you because you didn't love me so much you would give up your whole life for me. I expect this of every man.

― Kathy Acker, Great Expectations

“«La prunelle de mes yeux.» L’expression peine à rendre ce qui lie le parent à son nouveau-né. La prunelle de ses yeux, on pouvait la lui arracher sans qu’il tombe – la moelle de mes os s’approcherait davantage, pour dire que ça parcourt tout ce qu’on est, et qu’il s’agit du lien qui s’établit, avant même qu’on soit capable de reconnaître son enfant parmi les autres.”
― Virginie Despentes, Vernon Subutex 1
