Tell them about how you're never really a whole person if you remain silent, because there's always that one little piece inside you that wants to be spoken out, and if you keep ignoring it, it gets madder and madder and hotter and hotter, and if you don't speak it out one day it will just up and punch you in the mouth from the inside.

I can't really define it in sexual terms alone although our sexuality is so energizing why not enjoy it too?

what you hear in my voice is fury, not suffering. Anger, not moral authority

Out of my flesh that hungers and my mouth that knows comes the shape I am seeking for reason.

Guilt is only another way of avoiding informed action.

Who I am is what fulfills me and fulfills the vision I have of the world.

The erotic is a resource within each of us that lies in a deeply female and spiritual plane, firmly rooted in the power of our unexpressed or unrecognized feeling. . . .
