“It may sound paradoxical, but strength comes from vulnerability. You have to ask the question to get the answer, even though asking the question means you didn't know.”

“They will tell us we can be better than queens of the wild great something. They already told us we couldn’t be fairy princesses or white knights or dragon slayers. They will tell us to grow up, be serious. They will tell us to fight for a spot at the table. But now, we don’t. We desecrate their tables. We dance on tables. We take really big swords and hack those tables into tiny little pieces.”

“Love says, I have her in the palm of my hands and I will massage away any doubts and any fears until she stands confidently, and securely in my love for her. Ego says, “I have her in the palm of my hands and I will manipulate her until she is weak, fearful and totally dependent on me; only then can I be certain of her love for me. Choose love.”

“à l'université on m'a injustement reproché d'être un intrigant, sous prétexte que j'obtenais de garçons réputés farouches et impénétrables qu'ils me livrent leurs tourments secrets. En réalité, la plupart de ces confidences m'étaient imposées - je faisais souvent semblant de dormir, d'être très occupé, ou affichais une indifférence hostile, quand je me rendais compte (et certains indices ne trompent pas) qu'une révélation intime se profilait à l'horizon; car les révélations intimes des jeunes gens ou du moins leurs modes d'expression sont rarement inédits et souvent expurgés. S'abstenir de juger permet de conserver indéfiniment de l'espoir. Aujourd'hui encore, j'aurais un peu peur de passer à côté de quelque chose si j'oubliais ce principe que formulait mon snob de père, et que, snob moi-même, j'ai fait mien : le sens des convenances les plus élémentaires est inégalement réparti à la naissance.”
