“Fay… I-I’m…” I swallowed and bit my lip. Cash wound his arm around my shoulders, and it was all I needed to find the strength, because I knew, no matter what, he’d always be there for me. “I’m gay. Dad kicked me out last night and accidently slammed the door in my face. That’s how I bruised my cheek.” Her eyes flicked from me to Cash and how he was holding me. A new realization dawned across her face. Her lips parted and she slowly raised her hand to her lips. I wondered if she saw the connection between us. Cash was making it perfectly obvious.
She ran forward and pulled me into her arms, her eyes glistening. “Oh Harper, honey, I’m so sorry.”
“It’s okay,” I said awkwardly. “It wasn’t your fault.”

“Dong.
Dong.
Dong.
The third toll of the church bells hovered in the air, and everything became still. Someone in the village had died. Valerie froze.
Dong.
A forth toll shattered the silence. The world split open, exposing a raw inside.
Valerie and Peter looked at each other first in confusion, then in awful understanding.
The fourth bell meant only one thing: Wolf attack.
She had never heard the fourth bell except for the time she and Peter had rung it themselves.
With those bells, Valerie knew.
Life would never be the same,”

“Donia asked incredulously. “What were you doing?” “The day had just begun, and we were dancing,” Aislinn said. “Dancing?” Donia looked at the Summer Queen with the same disdain Keenan had once seen on her face when she looked at the Summer Girls. “Of course you were. Bananach is attacking faeries, stealing from our courts. Irial is injured. Faerie is closed. Yes, dancing is precisely what will help.”
“Donia looked away. "I pushed her toward you.I just made a mistake when I let myself think that you'd be mine for a few years... She's your match. I'm not."
"Maybe someday, but right now... I was carried away by the first summer. It's a heady thing, but I can redirect that energy. Let me have the dream of us for as long as we can. That's what the court needs--a happy king, a king who can't stop dreaming of being lost in someone who wants to be just as lost. Tell me you'll let me get lost in you.”

“Donkey had spoken to and petted dozens of dogs she'd seen jogging along the road or poking around for food at the edge of the Waters; some of them were traveling dogs, males chasing the scent of females in heat, while others had mysterious agendas they did not share. The cats she met were usually more elusive, hiding out and hunting until Molly saw the signs of their presence and trapped them and took them home and saved their lives all by herself. But dogs were valued in a town that knew them as man's best friend, and usually the loose dogs who appeared on Lovers Road were reunited with their owners or else were taken to the makeshift shelter Smiley Smith's mother had set up, where they were quickly adopted.”

“Donna E. Smyth - adventures with words; she is always doing something new and unique. Beginning with her visceral morality, her stories are startling, nerve wracking, provocative: she combines Angela Carter's beautiful style with Patricia Highsmith's malevolent atmospheres. Smyth shatters clichs and dismisses mere sociology. She knows that pleasure is besieged by terror. She tells us what we don't want to know, but need to know. Smyth's writing disturbs us, enrichingly, because truth can never be at peace with language.”
“Donna grew up with her parents arguing almost continually, and had consequently believed marriage was something that was not only inevitable, but also inevitably miserable.”

“Donne non si nasce, lo si diventa. Nessun destino biologico, psichico, economico definisce l’aspetto che riveste in seno alla società la femmina dell’uomo; è l’insieme della storia e della civiltà a elaborare quel prodotto intermedio tra il maschio e il castrato che chiamiamo donna.
Ma cos'e' la donna? E' semplicissimo – dice chi ama le formule semplici: è una matrice, un’ovaia; è una femmina: ciò basta a definirla. In bocca all’uomo, la parola “femmina” suona come un insulto; eppure l’uomo non si vergogna della propria animalità, anzi è orgoglioso se si dice di lui: “E’ un maschio!”
Ora la donna è sempre stata, se non la schiava, la suddita dell’uomo; i due sessi non si sono mai divisi il mondo in parti uguali e ancora oggi, nonostante che la condizione della donna si sia evoluta, la donna è gravemente handicappata.
Economicamente gli uomini e le donne costituiscono quasi due caste (due gabbie salariali si direbbe oggi); a parità di condizioni i primi hanno situazioni più favorevoli, salari più elevati, maggiori probabilità di riuscita. Nulla di nuovo si dice quando si afferma che gli uomini occupano nell’industria, nella politica, nell’economia, un numero assai più grande di posti e detengono le cariche più importanti.
L’uomo può pensarsi senza la donna: lei non può pensarsi senza l’uomo. Lei è soltanto ciò che l’uomo decide che sia; così viene qualificata “il sesso”, intendendo che la donna appare essenzialmente al maschio un essere sessuato: la donna per lui è sesso, dunque lo è in senso assoluto. La donna si determina e si differenzia in relazione all’uomo, non l’uomo in relazione a lei; è l’inessenziale di fronte all’essenziale.
L'uomo è definito come un essere umano e una donna come una femmina - ogni volta che si comporta come un essere umano si dice che imiti il maschio.
Le donne vivono disperse in mezzo agli uomini, legate ad alcuni uomini – padre o marito – più strettamente che alle altre donne; e ciò per i vincoli creati dalla casa, dal lavoro, dagli interessi economici, dalla condizione sociale.
C’è una strana malafede nel conciliare il disprezzo per le donne con il rispetto di cui si circondano le madri. È un paradosso criminale negare alla donna ogni attività pubblica, precluderle la carriera maschile, proclamare la sua incapacità in tutti i campi, e affidarle l’impresa più delicata e più grave: la formazione di un essere umano. Finché la famiglia e il mito della famiglia e il mito della maternità e l'istinto materno non saranno soppressi, le donne saranno oppresse.”
