“When I was younger, I enjoyed being strong, and I loved it when my heart was very strong, but I think it was also about submitting to the cultural idea that if you're a 22-year-old woman, you have to look a certain way. I'm not into that anymore. But I do appreciate it when my clothes fit.” IfsThinkingWayYearsLooksHeartIdeasCertainStrongMy HeartFitClothesAppreciateEnjoyedVery StrongOld Woman Author:Jennifer Beals
“There was a loneliness because kids my age had video games, tennis. They traveled. They had beautiful clothes. I was wearing my sisters' old clothes that were adjusted on me, because we didn't have money to buy clothes.

“I would not wear any clothes that had a brand name on them, and I only read books that were canonical. I wouldn't wear makeup, and I didn't like to let boys open the door for me because I felt like it was sexist. My heart was in the right place, but I was such a tiny dictator about it. It's embarrassing to me now because I was so rigid. It's such a rigid way of looking at the world. There's something very young about that mind-set.” WorldWayMindHeartBookYoungNamesFeltBoysDoorsMy HeartClothesTinyBrandsMakeupDictatorEmbarrassingRight PlaceSexistMind SetBrand Names Author:Zoe Kazan

“My heart born naked was swaddled in lullabies. Later alone it wore poems for clothes. Like a shirt I carried on my back the poetry I had read. So I lived for half a century until wordlessly we met.

“Madame V begins the lesson by reading aloud the first stanza of a famous French poem: Il pleure dans mon coeur Comme il pleut sur la ville; Quelle est cette langueur Qui penetre mon coeur? Then she looks up and without any warning she calls on me to translate it. I swallow hard, and try: "It's raining in my heart like it's raining in the city. What is this sadness that pierces my heart?" Saying these words out loud, right in front of the whole class, makes me feel like I'm not wearing any clothes.” FeelsTryingFirstsLooksHeartHardWholeReadingCitiesClassSadnessFrontsMy HeartLessonsClothesRainLoudLook UpWarningTranslatePierceReading Aloud Author:Sonya Sones
