To write is to be eaten. To read, to be full.

— Natalie Díaz, Postcolonial Love Poem

There are so many times when I want to be here just for your consumption, just to satisfy your appetite. This is what I feel I am intended for—I can’t help it. An intention was inside of me already when I traveled from infinity to a kitchen with a windowsill, to a wish, to a woman.

— Jenny Slate, Little Weirds

Ne pas pouvoir consommer dans notre société de consommation, c'est se sentir inexistant. [...] Quand on n'a pas d'argent et quand on ne peut pas acheter dans une société comme la notre, on est rien.

- le podcast Manger, épisode 11: "Est-ce que ça coûte vraiment cher de bien manger?"

English:

"Being unable to consume in our society of consumption is to feel nonexistent. When you don't have any money and you can't buy anything in a society like ours, you are nothing."
