"No one is ever really dead unless we find the body."

-- Julia Barr

“How often I have found that we grow to maturity not by doing what we like, but by doing what we should. How true it is that not every 'should' is a compulsion, and not every 'like' is a high morality and true freedom.”

“Upgrade your addictions to the status of preferences. Here's the distinction between an addiction and a preference:”
“A critic is a man created to praise greater men than himself, but he is never able to find them.”

I have rebelled against those who try to make me warm tortillas for my brothers when they can warm them for themselves, I have rebelled against a patriarchal religion. I rebel against small mindedness in all ways and in every situation but those things are not an intrinsic part of Latina culture and I will fight tooth and nail against anyone who tries to make me feel like I'm less Xicana for not embracing the small-mindedness.”
