Yes Queen Quotes

“She came from nothing. She wasn't going back to nothing.”
― R.F. Kuang

“Alice talked shit about people at work all the time, but she also seemed to thrive in the Hamilton Cooper male-dominated, bro-y workplace. She talked about dudes like they were himbos, which was hilarious to me. A lot of these guys hit on her when she first arrived, calling her "sexy girl" and "hot", not realizing she was Alice Lin, ballbuster and mankiller. With every jerk that winked, made kissy noises, or commented on how nice she looked, she launched into a tirade about women's rights, Asian American discrimination, and the company's harassment policies, making them shrivel up and slink away.”
― Suzanne Park, So We Meet Again

“Women are natural fighters. Though we may lack the muscle, we learn faster, unhindered by ego. We fight dirtier and kill cleaner. But scorned, we have the capacity to become more evil than any man that could walk the earth.”
― Sarah L Rose, The Guardians of the Aspis

“He probably relied on AI for all of his conversation starters tonight and you’ve just shut him down entirely. He’ll be licking his wounds over the girl who played hard-to-get all night now.’
‘Woman. And I don’t play hard to get,’ Raina said, regarding him coolly. ‘Men play easy-to-resist.”
― Elle McNicoll, Unapologetic Love Story

“I am not a party planner. I am not a chef, or a cleaner, organizer, office manager…” I stand at Sam’s desk and let my voice carry a little farther. “I’m not the receptionist or the marketing manager. I’m not in charge of office supplies or events, and above all…” Every deep breath I suck in brings me more than just oxygen. This is justified. This is the truth. I am right, my brain is telling me, and, right there to back it up, Grant watches from the door to our office, his eyes bright with approval.
So when the last words come out, I don’t have to scream them or even look at Phil. I just open my mouth, meet Grant’s eyes with all the ferocity I feel, and say, “And I am absolutely no one’s work mom.” I give Phil a quick, close-lipped, no-nonsense smile. “Is that it?”
“Y-yes.”
“Good.” I’m all benevolence now. Placid, kind. “Thanks for stopping by. I’m here should you need any help with subjects pertaining to human resources.”
I look back at my computer; Grant’s attention is still on me, a warm, wholesome glow.
It feels way too good.”
― Adriana Anders, Dom-Com
