“I suspect that one of the reasons we create fiction is to make sex exciting.”

“Art is excitement which if we can't create ourselves, we can at least, through love of it, make available to others.”

“Taking a risk is something we do not for our mind but for how it makes us feels, emotions it brings, excitement it creates and I feel alive.”

“We [-women and men-] are all equal in our creaturehood, whatever our sex, color, age, background, or abilities. But we are all different in the functions we were created to perform, as different as water from stones, and engineering from imaginative fiction.”

“It's all just fictions anyway. We do what we do and then we make up reasons for it afterward but they're never the true reasons, the truth is always just out of reach.”

“As the years progress and we experience more and more, the mini-narratives that make up our lives are distorted, corrupted, so that every one of us is left with a false history, a self-created fiction about the live we have led. pg 163”
