Richard Gadd is ten times the man I am because if I shared my trauma and I saw people calling me the villain and debating on what I should have done and calling my actions bad (even though I already acknowledged my role in what happened and also that guilt over being an imperfect victim is part of what kept me from saying anything at the time) I would go fucking insane and start killing

“You see, that’s what abuse does to you. You know? Made me this sticking plaster for all of life’s weirdos. This open wound for them to sniff at.”

"I would exchange my cup for an earthenware mug if my feet might once more tread the soft dust in the land of Kem. I would give my linen clothes for the skins of a slave if once more I might hear the reeds of the river rustling in the spring wind."

"Sinuhe, ystäväni, me synnyimme outoon aikaan. Kaikki liikkuu ja muuttaa muotoaan, niinkuin savi savenvalajan levyllä. Vaatteet muuttuvat, sanat ja tavat muuttuvat eivätkä ihmiset enää usko jumaliin, vaikka pelkäävätkin heitä. Sinuhe, ystäväni, ehkä synnyimme elämään maailman päivänlaskun aikaa, sillä maailma on jo vanha, kun tuhat ja kaksituhatta vuotta on kulunut pyramidien rakentamisesta. Kun ajattelen sitä, tahtoisin kallistaa pääni käsivarsieni varaan ja itkeä kuin lapsi." -

“Sinuhe, my friend, we are born into strange times. Everything is shapeshifting – like clay on a potter’s wheel. Clothings are changing, words, customs are changing, and people no longer believe in the gods – though they still fear them. Sinuhe, my friend, perhaps we were born in time for the sunset of the World, for the World is already old, as one thousand years and two thousands more have passed since the construction of the pyramids. When I think of that, I want to bury my head in my hands and cry like a child.”
