Quotes by Laura Maylene Walter (?)

“The whole system, the entire structure of our society, was built around protecting men instead of girls.”
― Laura Maylene Walter, Body of Stars

“We spend too much time either imagining the future, that vast expanse of unborn possibility, or else wandering the past, the land of the dead. And yet I return there, again and again, as if watching it unfold in my memory can affect the outcome. As if the past could ever be as changeable as the future.”
― Laura Maylene Walter, Body of Stars

“More than anything, I wished for those girls to have the ability to command their own lives, no matter what was marked on their skin. I wanted them to be liberated, and unafraid, and brimming with potential and possibility. But that wasn’t how the world worked for girls and women. Instead, we were made vulnerable through no fault of our own and held liable for the crimes committed against us. We were born already broken.”
― Laura Maylene Walter, Body of Stars

Oh, hey, I love the cover. Just got sent to your blog in my quest to find a place to comment (I find gr a little hard to navigate) and I particularly like how the image is stenciled on the page in your stories. Classy!
