Garth Greenwell Quotes

I Grew Up At The Height Of The AIDS Panic, When Desire And Disease Seemed Essentially Bound Together, The Relationship Between Them Not Something That Could Be Managed But Absolute And Unchangeable, A Consequence And Its Cause. Disease Was The Only Story Anyone Ever Told About Men Like Me Where I Was From, And It Flattened My Life To A Morality Tale, In Which I Could Be Either Chaste Or Condemned. Maybe That's Why, When I Finally Did Have Sex, It Wasn't So Much Pleasure I Sought As The Exhilaration Of Setting Aside Restraint, Of Pretending Not To Be Afraid, A Thrill Of Release So Intense It Was Almost Suicidal.
