"A man is not merely a man but a man among men, in a world of men. Being good at being a man has more to do with a manâ€™s ability to succeed with men and within groups of men than it does with a manâ€™s relationship to any woman or any group of women. When someone tells a man to be a man, they are telling him to be more like other men, more like the majority of men, and ideally more like the men who other men hold in high regard."

“The field of vision is comparable, for me, to the terrain of an archaeological dig. To see is to be on guard, to wait for what emerges from the background, without any name, without any particular interest: what was silent will speak, what is closed will open and will take on a voice.”
