“Fathers, do not let your sons forget
Do not let your sons forget
where their essence was just formed,
when their bodies were most vulnerable,
they were protected by the womb of a woman.
If they ever call all women weak,
remind them of the strength of their mother
who pulled her whole body apart
to give theirs a home.”
― Your Soul is a River

“One day, a knight in shining armour may find my daughter,
and offer to save her from her life, her problems, her troubles.
In that situation, I hope that I have raised a girl
that she smiles coolly and tells him,
'No, thank you. I've very much got this.'
Then puts on her armour and rides off into the sunset alone
to save herself.”
