“Yes, it’s uncomfortable to be confronted with an aspect of ourselves that we don’t like, but we can’t change what we refuse to see.” - Robin DiAngelo, White Fragility
“It is necessary to constantly remind ourselves that we are not an abomination.” - Marlon Riggs, 1957-1994
“I’m alive. There’s always joy mixed in with all of that pain.” - Pose, s2e6
“But unfinished business is the burden of the living…. Today we mourn. But tomorrow we stand firmly together, never losing sight of who we truly are.” - Pose, s2e4
“You just got to stay alive long enough for something better to come along.” -Pose, S2E1
“Time flowed past indifferently above us; hours and days had no meaning. In the beginning, our life together held a joy and amazement which was newborn every day. Beneath the joy, of course, was anguish and beneath the amazement was fear; but they did not work themselves to the beginning until our high beginning was aloes on our tongues. By then anguish and fear had become the surface on which we slipped and slid, losing balance, dignity, and pride. …The light in the eyes became a glitter; the wide and beautiful brow began to suggest the skull beneath. The sensual lips turned inward, busy and with the sorrow overflowing from his heart. It became a stranger’s face….” —James Baldwin, Giovanni’s Room (1956)
“…It takes strength to remember, it takes another kind of strength to forget, it takes a hero to do both. People who remember court madness through pain, the pain of the perpetually recurring death of their innocence; people who forget court another kind of madness, the madness of the denial of pain and the hatred of innocence; and the world is mostly divided between madmen who remember and madmen who forget. Heroes are rare.“ -James Baldwin, Giovanni’s Room
“‘I guess people wait in order to make sure of what they feel.’”
”In order to make sure!… And when you have waited - has it made you sure?’”
-James Baldwin, Giovanni’s Room
“Nothing is more unbearable, once one has it, than freedom.” - James Baldwin, Giovanni’s Room
“Quit everything, do nothing. America’s in retrograde.” - Cheekface, “Dry Heat/Nice Town”
...You know who everybody is already, because nobody’s half as good at concealing their worst impulse as they think they are.” - Daniel Laver, Something That May Shock and Discredit You
“Before I started testosterone I bought myself a lot of cheap accessories, both as a distraction and at least partly in the hope they would weigh me down and provide me with an actual, physical sense of being grounded.” - Daniel Lavery, Something That May Shock and Discredit You
“If I experienced moments of dismay, or disappointment, or discontentedness, that was easy enough to account for; life is often made difficult for women, so those moments were in themselves further evidence for my cis womanhood.” - Daniel Lavery, Something That May Shock and Discredit You
“It’s not that I don’t trust them. It’s that I don’t know if trust us a reasonable expectation to have of another person.” -Daniel Lavery, Something That May Shock and Discredit You
“What I wanted at the outset of transition was the opportunity to fold back the page at this particular turning point and live forward in two directions at once, in one version of my life where I transitioned and in one where I didn’t, then revisit after about fifteen solid years in each reality and make a formal assessment of which life proved the better.” - Daniel Lavery, Something that May Shock and Discredit You
