“For years I feared being exposed for what I truly am. It is still a new thing to dare to believe that what I truly am is this: both and neither. That this is neither disguise nor a costume, any more than my body itself can be these things.

I played the role longer, and after so many years I did not know what was left of me except for the playing. Only lately have I come to see it different - that the playing itself can be the truth of me.”
