Oscar Wilde
“LADY STUTFIELD. Ah! The world was made for men and not for women. MRS. ALLONBY. Oh, don't say that, Lady Stutfield. We have a much better time than they have. There are far more things forbidden to us than are forbidden to them.”
Oscar Wilde, A Woman of No Importance

“They do it because they can.”
Naomi Alderman, The Power

Martha Wells
“think you’re emotionally compromised right now.” That was … that was so completely not true. Stupid humans. Sure, I’d had an emotional breakdown with the whole evisceration thing, but I was fine now, despite the drop in performance reliability. Absolutely fine. And I had to kill the rest of the Targets in the extremely painful ways I’d been visualizing.”
Martha Wells, Network Effect

“Just because the relationship ended doesn't mean it wasn't true or good or worth having. Everything expires eventually. Enjoy the good for what it was, not what it always has to be.”
Iris Goodreads

Margaret Atwood
“We’re stretched thin, all of us; we vibrate; we quiver, we’re always on the alert. Reign of terror, they used to say, but terror does not exactly reign. Instead it paralyzes. Hence the unnatural quiet.”
Margaret Atwood, The Testaments
