J. Jack Halberstam
“Rather than searching for ways around death and disappointment, the queer art of failure involves the acceptance of the finite, the embrace, of the absurd, the silly, and the hopelessly goofy. Rather than resisting endings and limits, let us instead revel in and cleave to all of our own inevitable fantastic failures" (The Queer Art of Failure, "Ending, Fleeing, Surviving").”
J. Jack Halberstam, The Queer Art of Failure

Octavia E. Butler
“I found that I couldn't muster any belief in a literal heaven or hell, anyway. I thought the best we could all do was to look after one another and clean up the various hells we've made right here on earth.”
Octavia E. Butler, Parable of the Talents

“NDN youth, listen: to be lost isn't to be unhinged from the possibility of a good life. There are doorways everywhere, ones without locks, doors that swing open. There isn't only now and here. There is elsewhere and somewhere too. Speak against the coloniality of the world, against the route of despair it causes, in an always-loudening chant. Please keep loving.”
Billy-Ray Belcourt, A History of My Brief Body

Octavia E. Butler
“If God is Change, then... then who loves us? Who cares about us? Who cares for us?"

"We care for one another," I said. "We care for ourselves and one another.”
Octavia E. Butler, Parable of the Talents

Lou Sullivan
“I wanna look like what I am but don't know what someone like me looks like. I mean, when people look at me I want them to think-- there's one of those people that reasons, that is a philosopher, that has their own interpretation of happiness. That's what I am.”
Louis Graydon Sullivan, We Both Laughed in Pleasure: The Selected Diaries of Lou Sullivan
