Quotes by Nobuko Yoshiya (?)

“the sadness of those who love their own sex and therefore cannot live their lives in the form of a conventional marriage is redoubled by the chagrin of parents—for whom marriage represents the sole pinnacle of womanly achievement—and the opprobrium and scorn of everyone else.”
― Yoshiya Nobuko, Yellow Rose

“the utopian possibility of a space for these two girls love, even when there is no space other than in the depths of their own hearts.”
― Yoshiya Nobuko, Yellow Rose
