“In heterosexual monogamy, the woman forfeits at least as much freedom as the man—but her agency isn’t valued enough to be considered a loss.”
Naoise Dolan, The Happy Couple

Alison Espach
“She doesn’t see the point in staying alive only to do all the same things that made her want to die.”
Alison Espach, The Wedding People

Alison Espach
“Having a mother helps you believe that everybody wants to hear every little thing you think. Having a mother helps you speak without thinking. It allows you to trust in your most awful self, to yell and scream and cry, knowing that your mother will still love you by the end of it.”
Alison Espach, The Wedding People

“There is something soothing about being rejected. It really anchors you in your body. It feels like a bath.”
Emily Austin, Interesting Facts About Space

Emily R. Austin
“We are going to watch a scary movie. I felt like watching something frightening so I could exert power over it. I want to eat popcorn while I watch it and laugh while it tries to scare me.”
Emily R. Austin, Interesting Facts about Space
