Seth Stephens-Davidowitz
“I am now convinced that Google searches are the most important dataset ever collected on the human psyche. This”
Seth Stephens-Davidowitz, Everybody Lies: Big Data, New Data, and What the Internet Can Tell Us About Who We Really Are

“A bird with beautiful feathers is the target of many hunters.”
Matshona Dhliwayo

“We experience specific traumas that affect us profoundly. And we are living amidst institutional standards, family systems and normative practices that perpetuate sexual violence, segregation and domination. A host of macro and micro-aggressions punish sexual identities and experiences outside a norm that almost no one fits inside. Neglect of our sexuality is also vigorously enforced. Most children are born into a world that disregards their sexuality and admonishes or exploits its expression. Adults typically have their sexual experiences rationed to occasional and unsatisfying exchanges. It is well past time we recognize that this neglect in itself is traumatizing. By working and playing to transform our personal neurobiology, we also look to understand and transform the social context.”
Caffyn Jesse, Science for Sexual Happiness

Francesco Petrarca
“I cannot have a sufficiency of books. Indeed, I have more than I should... Books give utter delight: they talk with us... and are bound to us by lively and witty intimacy, and do not just insinuate themselves alone on their readers but present the names of others, and each one creates a longing for another.”
Francesco Petrarca, Selected Letters, Volume 1

Helen Simpson
“there are between life partners sliding layers of history, tectonic plates of it shifting over the decades together.”
Helen Simpson, Cockfosters
