Gloria E. Anzaldua Quotes

Why Am I Compelled To Write? ... Because The World I Create In The Writing Compensates For What The Real World Does Not Give Me. By Writing I Put Order In The World, Give It A Handle So I Can Grasp It. I Write Because Life Does Not Appease My Appetites And Anger ... To Become More Intimate With Myself And You. To Discover Myself, To Preserve Myself, To Make Myself, To Achieve Self-autonomy. To Dispell The Myths That I Am A Mad Prophet Or A Poor Suffering Soul. To Convince Myself That I Am Worthy And That What I Have To Say Is Not A Pile Of Shit ... Finally I Write Because I'm Scared Of Writing, But I'm More Scared Of Not Writing.
