In the time of gods and monsters, what is the worth of a man?

We talked about various aspects of what we wanted to talk about, Hillary [Clinton] and [Donald] Trump and down-ballot stuff, various issues. One of the things that it showed was you've got to use fear.

Everything we do really is just a little marker on the long road to death. And sometimes that’s overwhelmingly depressing to me, and sometimes it makes me feel kinship and forgiveness. We’ve all got the same ending to the story. The way we make that story more elaborate, I got to respect.

How do you know your Colossus is the genuine article in the first place? I read his mind. I matched his DNA. I smelled him. I also did that.

I didn't know feminism was actually a thing until I left home and found out the country didn't run the way my mom's house did.

Ultimately what I end up writing about is helplessness and the flipside of that, empowerment.

I write to give myself strength.
