It was like I had cleared a space inside myself, and I had to fill it up somehow, and that's how I came to sit down and write. I had to empty my life out first and begin from there.

But when we tore down what confined us, what did we have in mind to replace it? I offer no defence of coercive heterosexual monogamy, except that it was at least a way of doing things, a way of seeing life through. What do we have now? Instead? Nothing. And we hate people for making mistakes so much more than we love them for doing good that the easiest way to live is to do nothing, say nothing, and love no one.
