Sometimes Quotes by Mary Gaitskill

Adultery is like, here’s the way it is, and here’s exactly what you’re supposed to do. It’s like cheating at Monopoly. For me, it just doesn’t apply to human relations. I mean, I use the word sometimes because it’s fair and everybody knows what it means, but I find it a very irritating word.

I think, as we go through life, we can sometimes, while still staying essentially true to ourselves, pick up mannerisms or modes of expression that are like curlicues. And there was a lot of that that I recognized sometimes. And I remembered, sometimes dimly, why those phrases felt so tasty to me, why that particular curl felt so good to me. But from my point of view now, it was almost inaccurate. It changed the meaning of what I was saying in a way that it seemed like a distortion.

She disapproved, but part of her seemed secretly to sympathize with the sickness. It was like she thought everybody had it, and the best you could do was to cover it up, and sometimes it would just come boiling out anyway. Then you had to point at it and condemn it, even though you knew you had it too.
