Quotes by Carolyn See

"Every word a woman writes changes the story of the world, revises the official version."

Carolyn See

"It's my experience that you first feel the impulse to write in your chest. It's like falling in love, only more so. It feels like something criminal. It feels like unspeakably wild sex. So, think: When you feel the overpowering need to go out and find some unspeakably wild sex, do you rush to tell your mom about it?"
