By the age of thirty, things have fallen into place for most people. They’re more or less settled, with jobs and families. Nobody here today is a student anymore. This is a bunch of adults who’ve shed their school uniforms and evolved into something else.

Then I became aware of the heavy atmosphere in the room. I felt that I was inside Yuichi's nightmare, and that if I stayed here too long I, too, would become a part of it, destined to be snuffed out in the gloom. Page 99 Cover of Kitchen Kitchen 6 notes
Sometimes the other assistants and I would talk about how we felt a little bit like zoo animals. Our über-wealthy bosses had no idea how we lived. Page 117 Cover of Working With People I Want to Punch in the Throat Working With People I Want to Punch in the Throat 5 notes
But you can make the choices I couldn’t, and that makes it worth it. Your body belongs to you. You decide what's right for it. Only you. It’s worth it if you want it. Page 245 Cover of Comics For Choice Comics For Choice 5 notes
Sorry, the truth is we domesticated ourselves. Felis did not need your help to survive, and as he was no dummy, you certainly would not have succeeded in tricking or coercing him into accepting your company. Rather, he willingly entered into your communities, and on recognizing that a mutually beneficial relationship could exist between felines and humans, he agreed to stay.

Our power is…different. It is always met with fear or greed. Other Grisha either run from it, or they want it for themselves. Page 86 Cover of Demon In The Wood Demon In The Wood 3 notes
[…] the work of changing, imagining, reimagining, building, and rebuilding the world—is on me, too, because it’s on all of us. Page 12 Cover of Let This Radicalize You Let This Radicalize You 2 notes
“[…] stories that often ultimately reduce communities of color to their most traumatic episodes, thus creating a dynamic in which predominantly white American readers expect books by writers of color to “teach" them specific lessons--about historical trauma, far-flung wars, their own sins -while the work of predominantly white writers gets to float, palely, in the culture, unnamed, un-marked, universal as oxygen.” Page 8 Cover of How To Read Now How To Read Now 1 note
When we see people in our peer group play with an idea, our behavior changes. That’s how intelligence is created. That’s how culture is created. Page 15 Cover of The Culture Code The Culture Code 1 note
