- "Gender is always a failure, everyone fails. And it's a very good thing that we fail."
- "O que fala quando 'eu' falo para você?"
- "Nenhum sujeito é seu próprio ponto de partida."
- "[...] 'Sex' is an ideal construct which is forcibly materialized through time. It is not a simple fact or static condition of the body, but a process whereby regulatory norms materilize 'sex' and achieve this materialization through a forcible reiteration of this norms." (Bodies that Matter, p.1-2)
- "To claim that gender is constructed is not to assert its illusoriness or artificiality, where those terms are understood to reside within a binary that counterposes the “real” and the “authentic” as oppositional. As a genealogy of gender ontology, this inquiry seeks to understand the discursive production of the plausibility of that binary relation and to suggest that certain cultural configurations of gender take the place of “the real” and consolidate and augment their hegemony through that felicitous self-naturalization."
