“Most people instantly think of an eyeball when they learn my name. It bothered me so greatly when I was younger in school. Some boys relentlessly teased me, so that’s why Forest nicknamed me “Little Flower.” Even then, I disliked my name, and asked my mother (whose name was Aster, by the way) why she didn’t name me something fashionable, like Alexandra or Victoria. “The women in our family have always been named after flowers,” Mum said. “Be proud of your name.” Alas, I’m still striving to be.”
― Rebecca Ross, Divine Rivals

“A woman can be both, you know. Soft and fierce. She does not have to choose.”
― Imani Erriu, Heavenly Bodies
