Xiran Jay Zhao
“Shame and humiliation are self-imposed emotions, and from here on out, I choose not to feel them.”
Xiran Jay Zhao, Iron Widow

Xiran Jay Zhao
“How do you take the fight out of half the population and render them willing slaves? You tell them they're meant to do nothing but serve from the minute they're born. You tell them they're weak. You tell them they're prey. You tell them over and over, until it's the only truth they're capable of living.”
Xiran Jay Zhao, Iron Widow

Xiran Jay Zhao
“People love to ogle pretty girls, but they love to hate them even more. There's no one the masses are more obsessed with railing at than the women who dare to stray from the docile ideal of wives and mothers.”
Xiran Jay Zhao, Iron Widow

Xiran Jay Zhao
“You know what I think?” I say. “I think this whole concept of women being docile and obedient is nothing but wishful thinking. Or why would you put so much effort into lying to us? Into crippling our bodies? Into coercing us with made-up morals you claim are sacred? You insecure men, you’re afraid. You can force us into compliance, but, deep down, you know you can’t force us to truly love and respect you. And without love and respect, there will always be a seed of hatred and resistance. Growing. Festering. Waiting.”
Xiran Jay Zhao, Iron Widow

Xiran Jay Zhao
“What I have learned through this madness is that you can absolutely solve your problems by throwing money at them. If you can't, you probably don't have enough money for that particular problem.”
Xiran Jay Zhao, Iron Widow
