Toni Morrison Quotes

She Talked Like That. But I Understood What She Meant. About Having Another You Inside That Isn't Anything Like You. Dorcas And I Used To Make Up Love Scenes And Describe Them To Each Other. It Was Fun And A Little Smutty. Something About It Bothered Me, Though. Not The Loving Stuff, But The Picture I Had Of Myself When I Did It. Nothing Like Me. I Say Myself As Somebody I'd Seen In A Picture Show Or A Magazine. Then It Would Work. If I Pictured Myself The Way I Am It Seemed Wrong.
