{{Quotation|"....as far as the fourth wall protecting us from exploitation, as @zjofierose already said, it’s no longer doing that anyway. All anybody — actor, “journalist,” talent management, whomever — has to do to find out what fandom is up to and what we’re passionate about and what we’re shipping is pull out their smartphone....Your Pacific Rim analogy is really apt, tbh, because that giant wall we’ve spent so much time and blood building? It’s not keeping out shit."<ref>{{source| url = http://thewinterotter.tumblr.com/post/91123437096/i-loved-that-essay-on-the-4th-wall-you-reblogged | title = I loved that essay on the 4th Wall you reblogged... | archiveurl = http://web.archive.org/web/20141224203007/http://thewinterotter.tumblr.com/post/91123437096/i-loved-that-essay-on-the-4th-wall-you-reblogged | archivedate = 2014-12-24 }}</ref>}}

{{Quotation|"I know it’s corny, but there is truth in the idea that change comes from within, and that we teach people how to treat us. Obviously that’s not a full solution; but it’s a place to start. If we, collectively, begin to fully live into our own sexualities, our own passions, our own truths, it will start to affect the wider world, both inside and outside fandom. If, instead of being embarrassed by the things we’re excited about, we decide that we are not going to be ashamed of things that make us happy, it will make a difference."<ref>{{source| url = http://zjofierose.tumblr.com/post/91126283132/i-loved-that-essay-on-the-4th-wall-you-reblogged | title = The Final Frontier - I loved that essay on the 4th Wall you reblogged... |archiveurl=http://web.archive.org/web/20141224203224/http://www.peeep.us/72412416 | archivedate = 2014-12-24 }}</ref>}}
