“Insensibility, of all kinds, and on all occasions, most moves my imperial displeasure.”

“To name oneself is the first act of both the poet and the revolutionary. When we take away the right to an individual name, we symbolically take away the right to be an individual. Immigration officials did this to refugees; husbands routinely do it to wives.”
