“Secara singkat, aku selalu memperkenalkan diri sebagai pengarang atau novelis. Tanpa tambahan "pengarang wanita" atau "pengarang sastra" maupun mengatakan bahwa aku adalah seorang "sastrawan atau sastrawati". Aku tidak berpretensi sebagai "seorang sastrawati".

“I think about Bri getting harassed by the guy at the grocery store, girls getting catcalled by guys driving by when they're just trying to walk down the street, guys thinking they have a right to a girl's body because they take her out to dinner; about people who are hurt and feel like they can't talk about it, because, somehow, it's their fault when it's not. It's not our fault.”

“When, therefore, we maintain that pleasure is the end, we do not mean the pleasures of profligates and those that consist in sensuality, as is supposed by some who are either ignorant or disagree with us or do not understand, but freedom from pain in the body and from trouble in the mind. For it is not continuous drinkings and revelings, nor the satisfaction of lusts, nor the enjoyment of fish and other luxuries of the wealthy table, which produce a pleasant life, but sober reasoning, searching out the motives for all choice and avoidance, and banishing mere opinions, to which are due the greatest disturbance of the spirit.”

Mientras que las personas vegetarianas, veganas y el activismo animalista son acusadas de antropomorfizar a los animales, parece que quienes realmente lo hacen son quienes los oprimen.”
