“The process of emergence, in such conditions, is then a constantly repeated, an always renewable, move beyond a phase of practical incorporation: usually made difficult by the fact that much incorporation looks like recognition, acknowledgement, and thus a form of acceptance. (RW, “D,R,E”, p. 124-5)

“The resources of the previously oppressed … are not lost or wiped out through the structures of oppression that helped to define them: they are preserved somewhere, in the past itself, with effects and traces that can be animated in a number of different contexts and terms in the present.” EG, The Nick of Time, 257

“One day, in Autumn of 1845, I accidentally lighted on an MS volume of verse in my sister Emily’s handwriting. Of course, I was not surprised, knowing that she could and did write verse: I looked it over, and something more than surprise seized me – a deep conviction that these were not common effusions, nor at all like the poetry women generally write. I thought them condensed and terse, vigorous and genuine. To my ear they also had a peculiar music – wild, melancholy, and elevating.”
“Biographical Notice of Ellis and Acton Bell,” in Wuthering Heights and Agnes Grey, 1850.
