“I didn't mind being unpopular at school, because everyone else was a heathen.” — Jeanette Winterson

I like to look at how people work together when they are put into stressful situations, when life stops being cozy.

I think heterosexuality and homosexuality are a kind of psychosis, and the truth is somewhere in the middle.

I think people deceive themselves about themselves, particularly as they get older.

I wanted to invent myself as a fictional character. And I did, and it has caused a great deal of confusion.
