Quotes for nomads, part 1

On political action:

"I'm not gonna let something like not knowing where I'm gonna live next month make me someone who has to stay silent. Just because I'm visiting doesn't mean I'm going to stop being a revolutionary."

- Kathleen Hanna (Bikini Kill, etc), quoted in Girls to the Front by Sara Marcus

On possessions:

"Notwithstanding the book deal, I’m still here, and living out of bags. I’m still going to be eating my nuts and berries, still worrying when I go to restaurants what they’re doing to my food, still crashing here and there. ... I’ve never bought a piece of furniture in my life, and I’m 42."

- Jon-Jon Goulian, interviewed by Sari Botton in The Rumpus

On nomadic living as a habit:

"...the person who lives here isn't living here right now so I brought over a couple of t-shirts and an extra pair of pants, counted on her for a bar of soap and some toothpaste. ... I move around too easily. Before, I think I was availing myself [of] opportunity. Now I think it's just habit."

- Stephen Elliott, in The Daily Rumpus

Dear Julianne C.,

This is my furtive effort to reconnect after reading one of your complimentary letters buried in my office file. I am the mother of Deena and Kayla -- now independent young ladies away from the nest for one and five years!
