“Well I want to be joined to other people, but for all my life people have spoken for me: She says, She means, She wants. As if there were no I. As if there are no one here who could understand. Until you let me be an individual, an I, just as you are, you will never truly be able to come inside my silence and know me. And until you can do that, I will never let myself know you. Until that time, we can’t be joined. We cannot share a relationship.”
