    Self-hatred is harder to unlearn than it is to learn. It is difficult for a woman to be healthy in a culture that is still so very sick.

    I lived in a mine, and the toxin was misogyny. I got sick from it. Not because I’m a bad, sexist person, but because I was breathing misogynistic air.

    Revelation must come before revolution.
  • Hawtieeeehas quoted2 years ago
    People aren’t changing, after all. It’s just that for the first time, there’s enough freedom for people to stop changing who they are. Progress is the acknowledgment of what is and what has always been. Progress is always a returning.

    What if I don’t need your permission slip because I’m already free?

    It’s not: I love you no matter which of my expectations you meet or don’t meet.

    It’s: My only expectation is that you become yourself. The more deeply I know you, the more beautiful you become to me.

    someone tells you who they are, consider how lucky you are to be graced with that gift.

    Don’t respond with an eviction notice, a permission slip, or a concession speech.

    Un-God yourself.

    Gasp in awe and applaud with gusto.

    Good art originates not from the desire to show off but from the desire to show yourself.
  • Hawtieeeehas quoted2 years ago
    Good art always comes from our desperate desire to breathe, to be seen, to be loved.
  • Hawtieeeehas quoted2 years ago
    Art makes us less lonely because it always comes from the desperate center of the artist—and each of our centers is desperate. That’s why good art is such a relief.
