Grady Hendrix
“It isn’t too smart for a girl to be smart, her mom had always said. So she just made herself very, very small.”
Grady Hendrix, Witchcraft for Wayward Girls

Cordelia Fine
“There is in fact a category of people who get unusually close to the truth about themselves and the world. Their self-perceptions are more balanced, they assign responsibility for success and failure more evenhandedly, and their predictions for the future are more realistic. These people are living testimony to the dangers of self-knowledge. They are the clinically depressed.”
Cordelia Fine, A Mind of Its Own: How Your Brain Distorts and Deceives

“When it comes to intimate violence, are we, women, not the perpetrators of at least as much, if not more knowing, selfish damage to the universal female psyche, spirit, and potential? If I may speak only from my own experience … yes.”
Jennifer O'Toole, Autism in Heels: The Untold Story of a Female Life on the Spectrum

“There’s a psychological theory that says we each carry a core maladaptation—a little liar who takes residence in our noggins before elementary school (like Inside Out—the Nightmare Version). Some days we may work to confirm the lies are, in fact, true. That the Voice is right, and that we are very wrong. On those days, life seems to whisper, “No one will ever truly like you, let alone love you.”
Jennifer O'Toole, Autism in Heels: The Untold Story of a Female Life on the Spectrum

“It is very difficult for most healthy Americans to envision themselves as the ones whose liberty might be threatened in the effort to protect the health of the community. As a society, we have become masters of stigmatizing the sick and the contagious; we label them as separate from the mainstream.”
Judith Walzer Leavitt, Typhoid Mary: Captive to the Public's Health
