Sylvia Plath
“The trouble was, I hated the idea of serving men in any way. I wanted to dictate my own thrilling letters.”
Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar

Neal Shusterman
“How ironic, then, and how poetic, that humankind may have created the Creator out of want for one. Man creates God, who then creates man. Is that not the perfect circle of life? But then, if that turns out to be the case, who is created in whose image?”
Neal Shusterman, Thunderhead

Malala Yousafzai
“Is Islam such a weak religion that it cannot tolerate a book written against it? Not my Islam!”
Malala Yousafzai, I Am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Was Shot by the Taliban

Markus Zusak
“But then, is there cowardice in the acknowledgment of fear? Is there cowardice in being glad that you lived?”
Markus Zusak, The Book Thief

Michelle Obama
“I’ve been held up as the most powerful woman in the world and taken down as an “angry black woman.” I’ve wanted to ask my detractors which part of that phrase matters to them the most—is it “angry” or “black” or “woman”?”
Michelle Obama, Becoming
