Gender Identity/gender Identity%e2%80%94below The Surface

Famous quotes containing the words gender, identity and/or surface:

    “But there, where I have garnered up my heart,
    Where either I must live or bear no life;
    The fountain from the which my current runs
    Or else dries up: to be discarded thence,
    Or keep it as a cistern for foul toads
    To knot and gender in!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “There is a terrible blindness in the love that wants only to accommodate. It’s not only to do with omissions and half-truths. It implants a lack of being in the speaker and robs the self of an identity without which it is impossible for one to grow close to another.”
    —Alexander Theroux (b. 1940)

    “A novelist is, like all mortals, more fully at home on the surface of the present than in the ooze of the past.”
    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
