Especially now that the strip has more different kinds of characters. It’s really not all lesbians any more."― Alison Bechdel "The moment that changed me for ever was the moment my first child was born. I was happy, filled with hope, and thought, ‘Now I understand the whole point of work, of life, of love.’"― Paul Theroux "I have lived in the only decades I could have lived in, and hope to live through at least a few more."― Orson Scott Card
