I have discovered something amazing: some people aren't just people, but a place - a whole world. Sometimes you find someone you could live in for the rest of your life. John Kite is like Narnia to me...
I feel excitingly...free. Things were going to happen to me last night that I did not like - and I stopped them. I have never prevented my own doom before. I have never stood in the path of certain un...
I don't need to critique things, or have an opinion, or pose, with John - we just go around being alive, and pointing at things. We're just, simply, in the world. It had never occurred to me what a wo...
I also wish to be...noble. Profoundly noble. I wish to devote myself to a cause. I want to be part of something. I want to swing into action, like a one-woman army. An arm-me. As soon as I actually fi...
He’s not a person—he’s a place you travel to. Everything changes when you’re with him. He is the mayor of good times. I remember a quote I read: It was no man you wanted, believe me—it was a world.
FURTHER NOTE: This plan can ONLY go wrong in the event of ants. Ants do NOT like being pissed on.
El cinismo restriega la cultura, como la lejía, eliminando de pequeñas ideas incipientes. El cinismo significa que tu respuesta automática es No. El cinismo significa que das por hecho que todo el mun...
Egy kamaszlánynak légiesnek és szexisnek kellene lennie. Egy kövér kamaszlány testének senki sem veszi hasznát, csak ő maga. Egy albatrosz. Egy túlméretezett fehér madár. Úgy vonszolom magammal, mint...
Don't you think women would be happier if Layla had a whole chorus about Eric Clapton watching Patti Boyd trying to climb over a park fence, pissed, in order to retrieve a shoe she threw in there, for...
Death is not a release, but an incentive. The more focused you are on your death, the more righteously you live your life.
Bármilyen idiótának, aki azt kérdezi: „Feminista vagy? Akkor elégeted a melltartóidat, mi? HE? Melltartókat égetsz, te feminista? – szép nyugodtan így kell válaszolni: „Ostoba. OSTOBA! A melltartó a b...
But they didn’t. Because simply being able to vote isn’t the same as true equality. It’s difficult to see the glass ceiling because it’s made of glass. Virtually invisible. What we need is for more bi...
But now I've discovered the truth of the matter: that any woman can get laid, any time that she wants. Any woman. Any time. It is the greatest and most amazing secret on earth. It really doesn't matte...
But deciding not to have children is a very, very hard decision for a woman to make: the atmosphere is worryingly inconducive to saying, I choose not to, or It all sounds a bit vile, tbh. We call thes...
Books seem the most potent source: each one is the sum total of a life that can be inhaled in a single day.
Because the secret of everyone who comes to London—who comes to any big city—is that they came here because they did not feel normal, back at home.
Because I haven’t yet learned the simplest and most important thing of all: the world is difficult, and we are all breakable. So just be kind.
