Falling in love with another man is like falling into a vast vat of yourself. For some men this is ultimately nourishing, for others . . . it is drowning.

Be reckless in your intensities.

Learn to detest things that do not allow you to be yourself, and embrace things that make that self larger, more thrilling, and voluptuous.

There are certain restaurants where you should photograph the food rather than eat it. These are great places to bring a narcissistic boyfriend before you break up.

Although some fools find rudeness sexy, it is never the path to seduction.

I prefer the "tackiest" person in the world to the stylish person who has no tact.

We think of death and loss as tragic twins, but in fact it is loss that hurts us.
