“The Iliad is the private lives of people thrown into disorder by history.”

“The Odyssey is the story of someone who, in the course of diverse experiences, acquires a personality or affirms and recovers his personality.”

“It seems to me that an author who has determined very new domains in literature is Gertrude Stein.”

“I think sometimes what happens is that all of this feeling out of control manifests itself in trying to control your body; whether it's an eating disorder or talking about getting your nose fixed, as if that's going to be the solution to all the pressure.”

“The reason most people get eating disorders is because they want to be skinny, but they do it stupidly, and they stop eating completely - nobody knows anything about nutrition or exercise. I think it should be a separate subject in school.”
