“A man does not know a woman's value, Firdaus. She is the one who determines her value. The higher you price yourself, the more he will realize what you are really worth, and be prepared to pay with the means at his disposal. And if he has no means, he will steal from someone else to give you what you demand.”
― Nawal El Saadawi, Woman at Point Zero

“Sometimes I wonder why we keep returning to beginnings - why we seek the single thread we might pull to unravel the tapestry we call our life in the hope behind it we will find the truth of why. But there is no truth. There is only why. And when we look closer we see that behind that why is just another tapestry. And behind it another, and another, until we arrive at oblivion.”
― Richard Flanagan, Question 7

“Life is always happening and has happened and will happen, and the only writing that can have any worth confounds time and stands outside of it, swims with it and flies with it and dives deep within it.”
― Richard Flanagan, Question 7

“Experience is but a moment. Making sense of that moment is a life.”
― Richard Flanagan, Question 7
