"'In 1938, a Los Angeles teacher, Helen Hullick, was held in contempt for daring to show up in pants to testify as a witness and for refusing to change into a dress when the male judge insisted. She was given a five-day jail sentence.' Jailed for wearing a dress!" Sep 10, 2019 07:27AM

Ilona Andrews
“In my experience, Connor acted as if the word no meant nothing unless he was the one saying it.”
Ilona Andrews, Diamond Fire

Agatha Christie
“I suggest to you that, although you may have endeavored to gloss over the fact to yourself, you did deliberately set about taking your husband from your friend. I suggest that you felt strongly attracted to him at once. But I suggest that there was a moment when you hesitated, when you realized that there was a choice–that you could refrain or go on. I suggest that the initiative rested with you–not with Monsieur Doyle. … You had everything, Madame, that life can offer. Your friend’s life was bound up in one person. You knew that, but, though you hesitated, you did not hold your hand. You stretched it out and, like the rich man in the Bible, you took the poor man’s one ewe lamb.”
Agatha Christie, Death on the Nile

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
“Your feminist premise should be: I matter. I matter equally. Not “if only.” Not “as long as.” I matter equally. Full stop.”
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Dear Ijeawele, or A Feminist Manifesto in Fifteen Suggestions

Agatha Christie
“If there were only any peace in Egypt I should like it better," said Mrs. Allerton. "But you can never be alone anywhere. Someone is always pestering you for money, or offering you donkeys, or beads, or expeditions to native villages, or duck shooting.”
Agatha Christie, Death on the Nile

Ilona Andrews
“She wants lilacs in her wedding bouquet."
"Okay . . ." Nevada had said she wanted carnations, but we could stuff some pretty pink lilacs in there. I didn’t see the problem.
"Blue," Arabella squeezed out. "She wants blue lilacs."
No and also no. "Nevada . . ."
"I had to hide in a bush of French lilacs yesterday and they were very pretty and smelled nice. The card on the tree said, ‘Wonder Blue: prolific in bloom and lush in perfume.’"
I googled French lilac, Wonder Blue. It was blue. Like in your face blue.
"Why were you hiding in a bush?"
"She was being shot at," Arabella said with a sour face.
"So you stopped to smell the lilacs while people were shooting at you?" I couldn’t even.”
Ilona Andrews, Diamond Fire
