Quote by Beth Kendrick

“But Brook was on a roll. She started gesturing and pacing the carpet. "All I ask for is a cute little hideaway that hasn't sustained decades of internal structural damage. I don't want a fixer-upper; I don't want to spend all my free time fixing the previous owners' mistakes; I just want to move in and unpack. Is that really so much to ask?" "Yes," Anna said. "Both with houses and with men." (p 187)”

“It is not the maleness of males per SE that explains the proliferation of masculine assholes. It is not that men are assholes, as though non-asshole men have somehow overcome their inherently asshole tendencies. Rather, the influence of gender culture is just very deep. Deep gender culture, not maleness, is primarily to blame for the fact that assholes are mainly men.”

“Still, she was crazy about these two flickering men and wanted to be just like them with someone, except alive and not mute, though perhaps they spoke ghost-language to each other, and she couldn't hear it. She also loved their best friend, an older female ghost who wore men's clothes and ran barefoot through the vineyards, her red hair spun with flowers and bil- lowing behind her like a red river of fresh blooms. "Hey guys," she called out to the floating men. "Do you know anything about angels?" But of course she got no answer. They were mid-kiss, midair, entwined and enraptured as always. Their eternity was only each other.”
