Emma Cline Quotes

Hatred Was Easy. The Permutations Constant Over The Years: A Stranger At A Fair Who Palmed My Crotch Through My Shorts. A Man On The Sidewalk Who Lunged At Me, Then Laughed When I Flinched. The Night An Older Man Took Me To A Fancy Restaurant When I Wasn't Even Old Enough To Like Oysters. Not Yet Twenty. The Owner Joined Our Table, And So Did A Famous Filmmaker. The Men Fell Into A Heated Discussion With No Entry Point For Me: I Fidgeted With My Heavy Cloth Napkin, Drank Water. Staring At The Wall.

"Eat Your Vegetables," The Filmmaker Suddenly Snapped At Me. "You're A Growing Girl."

The Filmmaker Wanted Me To Know What I Already Knew: I Had No Power. He Saw My Need And Used It Against Me.
