Quote by Rene Crevel

“Straight lines go too quickly to appreciate the pleasures of the journey. They rush straight to their target and then die in the very moment of their triumph without having thought, loved, suffered or enjoyed themselves. Broken lines do not know what they want. With their caprices they cut time up, abuse routes, slash the joyous flowers and split the peaceful fruits with their corners. It is another story with curved lines. The song of the curved line is called happiness.”

“May you remember that you are allowed to be foolish. You are allowed to unlearn the weight of wisdom. You are allowed to take up space with laughter that doesn’t need to be understood. You don’t owe the world your composure. You don’t owe anyone the version of yourself that made them comfortable.”

“Den Mangel an Erzählungen von guten Frauen, mutigen Frauen, respektierten Frauen, wichtigen Frauen, starken Frauen habe ich nicht hinterfragt. Wenn über diese Frauen nicht geschrieben wurde, nicht gesprochen wurde, dann hat das in mir kein Nachfragen ausgelöst: "Wo sind diese Frauen?" Sondern nur ein resigniertes "Es gab diese Frauen nicht." Was nicht stimmt. Es gab sie. Es gab sie, die Frauen, die zusammenhielten, untereinander, und nach und nach kommen die Geschichten zusammen, Frauen schreiben über Frauen und Frauen schreiben für Frauen.”

“it’s so liberating, to have a job that pays well in a world where women are often expected to simply co-exist. I got to carve my own space, to exist on my own terms. Earning my own money, however I chose to, saving it, and spending it in any way I pleased with no one to answer to but myself. It felt like a quiet rebellion, a way of taking control of my own future in a world that didn’t always offer women that kind of freedom.”
