Kindling Quotes

“What our bodies require in order to thrive, is what the world requires. If there is a map to get there, it can be found in the atlas of our skin and bone and blood, in the tracks of neurotransmitters and antibodies.”
― Aurora Levins Morales, Kindling

“There is no neutral body from which our bodies deviate. Society has written deep into each strand of tissue of every living person on earth. What it writes into the heart muscles of five star generals is distinct from what it writes in the pancreatic tissue and intestinal tracy’s of Black single mothers in Detroit, of Mexicans migrants in Fresno, but no body stands outside the consequences of injustice and inequality.”
― Aurora Levins Morales, Kindling
