Quotes by Asako Yuzuki (?)

“In principle, all women should give themselves permission to demand good treatment, but the world made doing so profoundly difficult”
― Asako Yuzuki, Butter: A Novel of Food and Murder

“She was tired of living her life thinking constantly about how she appeared to others, checking her answers against everyone else’s.”

“Don't you think that's a disease of the contemporary age? It feels like these days our value is determined by how much effort we make from day to day. That matters even more than our results. After a while, the concept of effort starts to become mixed up with things feeling difficult, and then you reach the point where the person seen as the most admirable is the one suffering the most. I think that's the reason people are so vicious towards Manako Kajii. She refuses to live that life, refuses to suffer.”
― Asako Yuzuki, Butter
