“They tend to be skinny; perhaps their performance of appetite suggests comfort with deprivation. Maybe they dupe men into thinking that they, like air plants, don't need nourishment to survive.”
Chelsea G Summers

Sarah Hartshorne
“Although most people might want it, fame has the lowest odds of success, paired with the highest level of shame for those who fail. If someone changes after years as a banker, or an insurance salesman, we applaud them. But if you switch careers after working in entertainment? You're a failure. I guess the assumption is if anyone could be famous, they would. So, if you stop pursuing it, it must because you couldn't, and not because you just wanted to do something else.”
Sarah Hartshorne, You Wanna Be on Top?: A Memoir of Makeovers, Manipulation, and Not Becoming America's Next Top Model

Mónica Ojeda
“This is an ideal place to work...As long as you’re able to go deaf, blind, and mute from time to time.”
Mónica Ojeda, Jawbone

Nicola Dinan
“They're all white-they don't understand that I'll be asking for permission for the rest of my life”
Nicola Dinan, Disappoint Me

Grady Hendrix
“The problem was the liars. They said she could do anything she set her mind to, they told her she should shoot for the moon because if she missed she’d be among the stars, they made movies tricking her into thinking she could achieve heroic things. All lies. Because she was born to answer phones in call centers, to carry bags to customers’ cars, to punch a clock, to measure her life in smoke breaks. To think otherwise was insane.”
Grady Hendrix, Horrorstör
