Kindle Notes & Highlights
the navel marks both connection and disconnection. It is corporeal evidence of maternal linkage, but it is also the place on our bodies from which we are separated from our mothers.
We color in the outlines of our memories with our beliefs.
When people are oppressed, peace is tenuous, is unjust. It is maintained through the rejection of progress, through denial.
We absorb pain and anger through the body, and we must expel it through the body, like a virus, like rot.
