― Gloria Steinem, The Vagina Monologues

“I am the Love that Dare not Speak its Name”
― Alfred B. Douglas

“…the excitement of doing something for the first time had passed. I laid there in the back seat looking at the moon. It was unobscured by clouds except for a few wisps here and there. (Mitch) put his arms around me, and we looked at the moon together. You think we’ll have a lot of moons like this, this month? Mitch asked. “I hope so,” I said. We turned to each other and laughed. He didn’t try to fuck me after that. We just talked for a while about music, school, our brothers, and Janice, of course. And then he drove me home.”

“I didn’t hear words that were accurate, much less prideful. For example, I never once heard the word clitoris. It would be years before I learned that females possessed the only organ in the human body with no function than to feel pleasure. (If such an organ were unique to the male body, can you imagine how much we would hear about it—and what it would be used to justify?)”
― Gloria Steinem , The Vagina Monologues

“Nature can be cruel. Predators are everywhere. Those who don't need to be protected from outside forces often need to be protected from themselves.

Defending the nest is both our oldest and strongest instinct. And sometimes, it can also be the most gratifying.”
― Emily Thorne

― Karen Hinton, Penis Politics: A Memoir of Women, Men and Power

“We drive down the road in complete silence for a few miles listening to 50 Cent. As soon as he tells us that he's into having sex, he ain't into making love, Casey turns the volume down and begins telling me the following information: " I love you so much. We're going to have the best life together. I can't wait." Every word she says makes me feel a little more like faking a stroke and pretending to lose all memory of who I was, but it's not until she looks me in the eye and says in all seriousness, "You're my soul mate," that I realize I am not going to marry her.”
― Chad Kultgen, The Average American Male

“The Noblest form of Affection”
― Oscar Wilde

“With all the global warming going around nowadays, it would only take the stubbornness of a mule and the patience of a sitting duck to achieve what no man has ever done before – namely melt the ice in a wax figure’s beaten heart that was chopped off and hidden 50 meters under the polar ice caps in Alaska, to protect it from feeling.”
― Will Advise, Nothing is here...

“Quella macchia laggiù, che rosseggiava al tramonto e che questo crepuscolo fa buia, riempie a volte il mio animo di un'indicibile angoscia. Eppure sappiamo con certezza che il Male, qualunque sia la sua astuzia, la sua potenza, non prevarrà. Tutto è possibile a Dio. Una forza dolce, paterna, può intervenire negli avvenimenti decisivi, perfino il miracolo, cioè un intervento visibile di Dio. Noi cristiani e credenti se sappiamo che una persona è in pericolo di morte,siamo pronti ad intervenire, e se non sarà la terra a smuoversi, muoveremo il cielo. Ecco cosa significa credere in Dio. L'eternità e il suo mistero d'amore. Respingere con tutte le proprie forze l'idea del nulla. É terribile, apre abissi l'idea del nulla.”
― Ferruccio Parazzoli

“Whether one becomes irrationally risk taking (failing to shift strategy in response to a declining reward rate) or risk averse (failing to respond to the opposite), one is incorporating new information poorly. Stated most broadly, sustained stress impairs risk assessment.”
