“Women's history does not need to be exceptional to be relevant.”
Nicola Clark, The Waiting Game: The Untold Story of the Women Who Served the Tudor Queens

“Much of women’s history leans on a trope of ‘exceptional’ women: ‘girlbosses’ who achieved incredible things against the impossibly patriarchal odds of their day. Such women did, of course, exist, and we should celebrate them. But we could easily describe all women in the past in this way. All of the women in The Waiting Game existed close to the centre of power and acted in ways that influenced the broader historical narrative. All occasionally stepped outside the boundaries that society allegedly dictated for their sex.”
Nicola Clark, The Waiting Game: The Untold Story of the Women Who Served the Tudor Queens: A History

“These women's long-standing ability to fade into the background has served them well. To follow them as a historian is often to see them slide out of view as soon as one tries to focus the lens. But allowing light into the darker corners of any history illuminates more than just one frame. To tell Henry's reign from the perspective of ladies-in-waiting is to see the familiar become unfamiliar. We were never supposed to know these stories like this. It's important that we do.”
