What am I ready to lose in this advancing summer? As the days that seemed long grow shorter and shorter I want to chew up time until every moment expands in an emotional mathematic that includes the smell and texture of every similar instant since I was born.
Audre Lorde, Seasoning

The older I get, the more I find that you can only live with beings who liberate you, who love you with an affection that is as light to bear as it is strong to feel. Life today is too hard, too bitter, too debilitating for us to suffer new bondages, new captivities from those whom we love. This is how I am your friend: I love your happiness, your freedom, your adventure, in a word - and I would like to be, for you, a companion you can be sure of, always.”
— Albert Camus, (to René Char, 1957) in "Camus-Char: Correspondence 1946-1959) (Gallimard, 2007) (via Alive on All Channels)
