"I’ve always imagined you and me sitting out in the sun, hand and hand, free at last. We spoke of all the places we would go if we could. Yet you are gone now. If I had known that bombs raining down on us would take you from me, I would have gladly told the world how I adored you more than anything. I’m sorry I was a coward."

in Ciudad de México, México: "La última vez que nos vimos te lloré lo suficiente. Tanto que, cuando nos despedimos, te dije lo cobarde que habías sido por no poderme decir las palabras que necesitaba escuchar: no me gustas."
in Avon, Pennsylvania: "Born and raised black in this honky town and spent 25 years of my life thinking I just hadn’t found the right man yet. I went all over the world for school and my career, but it was in this honky town that I realized there is no man for me. I am, and always have been, for women."
in Calabar, Nigeria: "I’m black, a girl and queer; I’m definitive proof that god has a sense of humor. Cause why make someone who is so ill equipped for the world. It was here in my Christian secondary school I wondered a lot about myself, never knew I was bi right away but for some reason thought it was best to pray against it; I never had crushes and last thing I wanted to happen was to enter university and discover I liked girls. But it went unanswered like most prayers I whispered in the dark. One day people will realize that queerness isn’t an oyinbo thing, isn’t a sin and it’s just as normal as everything else"
in Isfahan, Iran: "Shahid Menshei Girls' Middle School. Where love was more interesting to me than any book or subject, and seeing my first love was the reason I went to school. "
"مدرسه راهنمایی دخترانه شهید منشئی. جایی که عشق از هر کتاب و موضوعی برام جذاب تر بود و دیدن اولین عشقم دلیل رفتنم به مدرسه بود. "
in Villa Traful, Argentina: "Almost every day my father and I drove half an hour to the Internet Cafe here so I could talk to you. In my afternoon you would just be waking up and we could laugh and share our love before you went to school. Then we drove the half an hour back to the ranch and I would miss you again immediately."
in Zarembo Island, Alaska: "Fell in love while camping. We fell asleep with our heads touching. I read their tarot and cried when a humpback whale breached in front of our campsite."
in Ciudad de México, México: "Solíamos tomar café aquí. A veces simplemente pasábamos demasiado tiempo mirándonos a los ojos que el café se nos enfriaba."
