I have always been intrigued by the journals that girls keep. They are like dollhouses. Once you look inside them, the rest of the world seems very far away, even unbelievable. If only we had the power to keep outside ourselves at such moments, we would spare ourselves so much pain and fear. I'm not talking about truth or falsehood but about surviving.
Rachel KleinWhy should I be sad? Everyone has to die. If you have a body, it's too late to cry. It's only funerals I can't stand.
Rachel KleinI canโt imagine what it would be like to have sex with a man. To be so intimate with another person. Not to hide anything. I donโt know if I could do that. It would have to be a boy anyway, not a grown man, someone as scared as me.
