Quotes by Shauna Singh Baldwin  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“I do not need to understand words to know he is disappointed I am not a boy. Some things need no translation. And I know, because my body remembers without benefit of words, that men who do not welcome girl-babies will not treasure me as I grow to woman - though he call me princess just because the Guru told him to.

I have come so far, I have borne so much pain and emptiness!

But men have not yet changed.”
Shauna Singh Baldwin, What the Body Remembers

“Learning is just remembering slowly, like simmer coming to boil.”
Shauna Singh Baldwin, What the Body Remembers

“Vaheguru, forgive me, but a woman must choose the wisdom of lies over the dangers of truth.”
Shauna Singh Baldwin, What the Body Remembers
