“The people we love get under our skin and crawl through our veins and fine their way into our heart. They choke up our blood flow and mess up our breathing and tangle themselves through our bodies like wire. Like razors, like fire.
We remember them even when we don't remember them.
We try and forget, but it's pointless.
Even amnesia. Even comas and brain damage and traumatic shock.
Whatever makes us not remember, we still remember.
Our minds flounder like fish but our bodies...
Our bodies remember.”
― Katrina Leno, The Half Life of Molly Pierce

“Because there was nothing in a girl’s history that might negate her right to choose what happens to her body.”
― Katrina Leno, Summer of Salt
