    “The queers of the sixties, like those since, have connived with their repression under a veneer of respectability. Good mannered city queens in suits and pinstripes, so busy establishing themselves, were useless at changing anything.”
    —Derek Jarman (b. 1942)

    “But how do I get to having to write a book?... It was a mother who bore me, not an inkwell!”
    —Robert Musil (1880–1942)
