Charles Fuller quotes
I didn't start writing to tell happy, little stories. I started writing to make some impact on the world in which I live. If you don't want to say anything about sexual assault, that's your business, but I want to say something about it. I think it is absolutely and unequivocally wrong. We have no right because we are in the military to rape fellow soldiers who just happen to be females. A lot of victims are male as well. In the Army I was in, the life of the person next to you was as valuable as your own. You would never do anything to hurt your comrade. Your life depended on him, and in the case of Iraq, those gentlemen's lives depended on the women they were raping. It's horrifying.
Charles Fuller
We speak [in traditional portrayal] one abominable language-hip; we have one interest-women. Our lives have no beginning, no ending. We're highly emotional in terms of reactive violence, and we do not use our minds in any way.
Charles Fuller
