“Dwarf things. Small things. Little things in relation to the norm. Insignificant things. Things with different dimensions. Curiously, the stories I like the most are made up of trivialities. Details. Trifles. These days, people look to what's big. The big picture, big sales figures, success. Bright lights, interviews, breaking news. Whatever's famous. Importance judged by fame. Maybe small things are subversive. Living on a modest scale compared to the norm. Maybe the dwarf is the hero of our time.”
Brenda Lozano, Loop

“I found my identity in refuting the standards that society tried to impose on me. I refused to concede to anyone else鈥檚 standard of good and evil, even if their constructs were rational and mine were not. Relativizing good and evil allowed me to dismiss any concept of a moral code. Dismissing the moral code did not get rid of my inward compass that told me when one thing was wrong and another was right, but it did allow me to mock others鈥� concepts of right and wrong in preference to my own.”
Michael J Heil, Pursued: God鈥檚 relentless pursuit and a drug addict鈥檚 journey to finding purpose
