Quotes
People fuck up their lives. All you can do is go along with it. Or stop choosing friends from among the dysfunctional. It’s not the lost souls, the people no one cares about, who fuck themselves up. No, it’s people who are loved. It’s a way for them to say to those around them: you’re useless. Look, you can’t even help me. I always side with the nonaligned. What can you do for friends for whom you fear the worst? Nothing. All you can do is send messages saying let’s play ping-pong, let’s meet at a café. All we can do is think: I hope it will pass. And be there afterward. Praying that there will still be something left of the friend you had. And then let it go. Much love.
hatever women do, someone feels obliged to prove that we’ve gone about it the wrong way. There is no correct response, whatever choice we make is necessarily wrong, and we are blamed for a failure that is, in fact, collective and involves both men and women.
hese days, we hear men bitching that women’s liberation is emasculating them. They yearn for a status quo ante, when their power was rooted in the oppression of women. They forget that the political advantages they enjoyed always came at a cost: women’s bodies belonged to men only inasmuch as men’s bodies belonged to the means of production in peacetime, and to the state in time of war. The expropriation of the female body coincided with the expropriation of the male body.
