for when you think you have not suffered

"Privilege" is something else.
"Privilege" is a judgment.
"Privilege" is an opinion.
"Privilege" is an accusation.
"Privilege" remains an area to which--when I think of what she endured, when I consider what came later--I will not easily cop.

-- Joan Didion, My Blue Nights [76]
