Lesbians Over 60, published in the Common Lives/Lesbian Lives (CL/LL) quarterly
June 1985
“Common Lives/Lesbian Lives (CL/LL), an Iowa City-based lesbian literary journal, was initiated by eight lesbians who were living in the Los Angeles area in the fall of 1980; a co-founder of Sinister Wisdom encouraged the women by stating that more lesbian journals were needed because Sinister Wisdom received more submissions than it could print. […]
The purpose of Common Lives/Lesbian Lives was to 'document the experiences and thoughts of lesbians as we claim our past, name our present conditions, and envision our evolving future.' CL/LL published all forms of creative expression including poetry, fiction, essays, drawings, memoirs, letters, photographs, and cartoons.”

“Compassion goes beyond recognition, beyond the concept, beyond representation. I am unable to represent pain to myself except by undergoing it. I do not recognize the suffering other unless I feel compassion [compassione] for him. But through this action of putting myself in his place via love, by feeling pity [di compatire], I proceed to construct the world. It is not the divinity, then, not a meaning that descends from above, but suffering and pain, which come from below, that construct the very being of the world. Spinoza also operates on this terrain and from this perspective. The universal and constitutive function of suffering [patire] can be found where passion becomes compassion, and sadness turns into the joy of communion with the other. The ontology of the community is uncovered through suffering together—a suffering that is, therefore, torn from passivity and becomes constructive. It becomes ethical.”
