This Too Shall Pass by Milena Busquets

– The problem with families of choice is that they disappear more easily than the blood ones. –

– I'm crazy about my asymmetrical body, it's soft, skinny, imperfect, and disproportionate; I spoil it, I grope it, I give it what it asks for, I follow it all over the place, I meekly obey it, I never contradict it. It's the opposite of a temple. I have tried, I have tried and never succeeded, just let my head be a temple, but my body always remains an amusement park. –

– "Know what one of the toughest things about growing old is?" she asked me one day. "Realizing that nobody cares what you have to say."

–I don't think anyone can come out of being photographed while shitting unscathed. –
