“You are not required to contribute to be worthy of love and care and belonging. We know this is true because you could be connected to a ventilator unable to contribute anything (and in fact be using lots of resources) and still be a worthy human being. We all have seasons of life when we are capable of contributing more or less than the people around us.”
K.C. Davis, How to Keep House While Drowning

“You don’t exist to serve your space; your space exists to serve you.”
K.C. Davis, How to Keep House While Drowning

Eva Illouz
“The culture of capitalism is self-contradictory, demanding that people be hard workers by day and hedonists by night.”
Eva Illouz, Consuming the Romantic Utopia: Love and the Cultural Contradictions of Capitalism

Larry Godwin
“Today I hit rock bottom but didn’t busy myself with activity to take my mind off it, like I usually do. I allowed myself to sink as deep as possible. It’s like an infection: let it run its course and be done with it. Rising, I felt cleansed.”
Larry Godwin, Transcending Depression: Quest Without a Compass

“Care tasks exist for one reason only… to make your body and space functional enough for you to easily experience the joy this world has to offer.”
K.C. Davis, How to Keep House While Drowning
