Audre Lorde
“I learned so much from listening to people. And all I knew was, the only thing I had was honesty and openness.”
Audre Lorde

Joanna Russ
“Scholars don't usually sit gasping and sobbing in corners of the library stacks.
But they should. They should.”
Joanna Russ, On Strike Against God

Audre Lorde
“I soon discovered that if you keep your mouth shut, people are apt to believe you know everything, and they begin to feel freer and freer to tell you anything, anxious to show that they know something, too.”
Audre Lorde

Hanya Yanagihara
“He now viewed a successful relationship as one in which both people had recognized the best of what the other person had to offer and had chosen to value it as well.”
Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life

Hanya Yanagihara
“Why wasn’t friendship as good as a relationship? Why wasn’t it even better? It was two people who remained together, day after day, bound not by sex or physical attraction or money or children or property, but only by the shared agreement to keep going, the mutual dedication to a union that could never be codified.”
Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life
