“Be wary. Be clever. Be good.”
― Rachel Gillig, One Dark Window

“I am in the ocean. I am on the shore. I am trying to remember or to see.

The space between me and me is you. This is a mystery.”
― Anne De Marcken, It Lasts Forever and Then It's Over

“This sadness is not an empty church and not an empty house. It is the whole empty world and I am in it and it is in me.”
― Anne de Marcken, It Lasts Forever and Then It's Over

“Male fantasies, male fantasies, is everything run by male fantasies? Up on a pedestal or down on your knees, it's all a male fantasy: that you're strong enough to take what they dish out, or else too weak to do anything about it. Even pretending you aren't catering to male fantasies is a male fantasy: pretending you're unseen, pretending you have a life of your own, that you can wash your feet and comb your hair unconscious of the ever-present watcher peering through the keyhole, peering through the keyhole in your own head, if nowhere else. You are a woman with a man inside watching a woman. You are your own voyeur.”
― Margaret Atwood, The Robber Bride
