“It is an awful thing to be betrayed by your body. And it's lonely, because you feel you can't talk about it. You feel it's something between you and the body.

― David Levithan, Every Day

“Understanding rustled through me, soft as leaves. It wasn’t quite the same, but I’d often felt I didn’t fit inside the boundaries of the word girl.

There were moments when I sorely wished to be free of the confines of this body, the expectations it seemed to carry.”
― A.R. Capetta, The Brilliant Death

“If I were in a different body, this would be the time I would lean down and kiss her. If I were in a different body, that kiss could transform the night from off to on. If I were in a different body, she would see me inside. She would see what she wanted to see.

But now it's awkward.”
― David Levithan, Every Day

“Welcome to your new bodies, gentlemen. If you'd like, I can help you start your own 'dysmorphia is all in your head' support group.”
― Howard Tayler, The Tub of Happiness

“I just want to get away from me.”
― Kris Kidd

“Don't train to GET a better body, train to BE a better body.”
― Nate Hamon

“There is something about my face in the mirrors that catch it. Even at a distance it will never be right again, not even to a casual glance. Beauty: it's the upkeep that costs, that's what Balzac said, not the initial investment.”
― Joanna Walsh, Vertigo
