“Women non-combatants always see battles from a different perspective. Not in the battlefield and consigned to waiting, they find things to do. Anything to feel useful, to stave off the helpless feeling that the men you love might be dead or dying. It's a woman's way to measure a battle, by the length of time it takes to wash your floor.”

“In the aftermath of the Second World War, a massive experiment in humanity began, one that is still happening. This is the human rights wave born in the horrors of the Second World War. It came from a profound belief shared by men and women all over the world after the war - the new understanding that all people deserve to be treated with dignity, that we are all human, and that there is no honour and never and excuse for oppression based on race, religion, culture, or colour.”
