“I had done things I shouldn’t have done, and when you’ve done things you shouldn’t, you can’t afford to be picky. You have to grab whatever bits of rope come your way and allow the hand that reaches out to you to haul you up.”
― Lina Wolff, Carnality: A Novel

“Det krever en enorm beherskelse å tøyle virkelig begjær, i tilfelle du ikke vet det. Og man må ikke tro at man blir sterkere om man klarer å gjøre det. Eller man blir kanskje sterk, men man blir også tørr, tørr som et papirark. Man mister intimiteten, og intimiteten er åren til livets kilde.”
― Lina Wolff, De polyglotta älskarna
