Quote by Ezinne Orjiako, Nkem.

“It feels like a sort of self betrayal Your abuser makes you laugh in public; yet treats you like a wet napkin in private. To them you are only useful until your are disposable again. So you join in the laughter. Silence the ten angry women inside of you. Hoping that maybe, next time it is you and the abuser alone things could be a little bit different. But them or things; they never change. And you; you always stay. You always hope. You always laugh. It feels like a sort of self betrayal”

“The latest element to turn up is called plutonium--which is Disney with a touch of mineral water. The word uranium had a mighty sound, a solemn sound, an awful sound. Plutonium is a belly laugh. Plutonium, incidentally, is not known in the stars; the stars are too high-minded. Plutonium is a mouthwash used by Mandrake. Plutonium is just something belonging to the comical race of people who started their first atomic fire under a football stadium.”
