“The message of love or beauty or hope needs to be said by a hundred thousand different voices, written by a hundred thousand different pens, at a hundred thousand different times in history, different places in the world, different sectors of society, in different genres and registers, simply to be heard by the billions of ears and hearts that lie waiting for a truth which fires their soul, answers their question, speaks to their heart.”

“Nie ma postulatu, by każdy tekst odhaczył określoną liczbę okienek z listy „reprezentacja mniejszości”, z czego uwielbiają szydzić ci, którzy empatii nie widzieli nawet w słowniku, bo raz natknęli się na termin „polityczna poprawność” i nie szukali już jakichkolwiek innych. Reprezentacja nie jest obowiązkowa, ale jest potrzebna i pożyteczna. Marzy nam się literatura, która nie wyklucza z powodu arbitralnych cech. Albo inaczej: literatura, która jest pisana z empatią i namysłem, sięgająca po to, co jeszcze nieograne i pomijane, pokazująca coś, co widujemy rzadko, a czego potrzebę odczuwamy głęboko. Bo jeśli nawet gatunek, w którym może istnieć wszystko, udaje, że nie istnieją osoby LGBTQ+, to czy gdziekolwiek jest dla nas miejsce?”

“If a part of you is always separate, if existing in your body feels unbearable love is an irresistible escape. You transcend, a sensation so indescribable that philosophers, scientists, and writers can't seem to agree on what the fuck it even is if it even is. I often wonder if I have actually experienced deep love. I feel as though I have, but is it real if you were never there? When you have numbed yourself to the truth? Love was unwittingly an emotional disguise, and my relationship to it is another muscle to be transformed. I don't want to disappear. I want to exist in my body, with these new possibilities. Possibilities. Perhaps that is one of the main components of life lost to lack of representation. Options erased from the imagination. Narratives indoctrinated that we spend an eternity attempting to break. The unraveling is painful, but it leads you to you.”
