“I don't understand the feeling of, the way people speak of writing as though it were, like, some kind of djinn to be summoned or like it's the Loch Ness monster or seeing a shooting star. It's a physical act. It is a thing you do with your muscles and your body and your willpower. Watch, I'll show you: get a piece of paper. Get a pencil.

“Disrespect also can take the form of idealizing you and putting you on a pedestal as a perfect woman or goddess, perhaps treating you like a piece of fine china. The man who worships you in this way is not seeing you; he is seeing his fantasy, and when you fail to live up to that image he may turn nasty. So there may not be much difference between the man who talks down to you and the one who elevates you; both are displaying a failure to respect you as a real human being and bode ill.” MenWayHumansMayRealFormTurnsDifferencesHuman BeingsPerfectFantasyPiecesFailingSeeingHe ManFineWorshipIllChinaGoddessNastyDisrespectPedestalReal HumanPerfect WomanWorship YouFine China Author:Lundy Bancroft
“If you are doing a piece about somebody, even if you admire them tremendously and express that in the piece, express that admiration, if they're not used to being written about, if they're civilians, [...] they're not used to seeing themselves through other people's eyes. So you will always see them from a slightly different angle than they see themselves, and they feel a little betrayed by that.” PeopleIfsFeelsLittlesDifferentEyeUsedPiecesWrittenSeeingAdmireAdmirationAngleBetrayedCiviliansDifferent Angles Author:Joan Didion
“There is so much baggage we burden ourselves with over the years that keeps us from seeing things the way they are.

But there isn't one piece that isn't our own creation.” WayYearsPiecesSeeingCreationLifetimeBurdenBaggageOne Piece Book:Zen Baggage: A Pilgrimage to China Source: Zen Baggage: A Pilgrimage to China
