“Masculinity is a hard, small cage, and we put boys inside this cage.”
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, We Should All Be Feminists

Warsan Shire
“Perhaps, the problem is not the intensity of your love, but the quality of the people you are loving.”
Warsan Shire

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
“Is love this misguided need to have you beside me most of the time? Is love this safety I feel in our silences? Is it this belonging, this completeness?”
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Half of a Yellow Sun

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
“Stories matter.”
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
“We spend too much time teaching girls to worry about what boys think of them. But the reverse is not the case. We don’t teach boys to care about being likable. We spend too much time telling girls that they cannot be angry or aggressive or tough, which is bad enough, but then we turn around and either praise or excuse men for the same reasons. All over the world, there are so many magazine articles and books telling women what to do, how to be and not to be, in order to attract or please men. There are far fewer guides for men about pleasing women.”
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, We Should All Be Feminists
