KQC’s Quotes

“To the men who ran the world, I was just a photo op, not someone worthy of their time and attention, even when I needed it most.

Women on the other hand, responded immediately, answering my calls and jumping into action as soon as we hung up.”
― Malala Yousafzai, Finding My Way

“他已经三十二岁，还没有结婚。对于女人，他只能想到性欲。他的脸与诗文一样的不招女人喜爱，所以他因为接近不了女人而也恨女人。看见别人和女性一块走，他马上想起一些最脏最丑的情景，去写几句他自己以为最毒辣而其实是不通的诗或文，发泄他心中的怨气。他的诗文似乎是专为骂人的，而自以为他最富正义感。”
― 老舍, 四世同堂

“That was when they noticed that every musician on the stage was wearing mourning black. That was when they shut up. And when the conductor raised his arms, it was not a symphony that filled the cavernous space.

It was the Song of Eyllwe.

Then Song of Fenharrow. And Melisande. And Terrasen. Each nation that had people in those labour camps.

And finally, not for pomp or triumph, but to mourn what they had become, they played the Song of Adarlan.

When the final note finished, the conductor turned to the crowd, the musicians standing with him. As one, they looked to the boxes, to all those jewels bought with the blood of a continent. And without a word, without a bow or another gesture, they walked off the stage.

The next morning, by royal decree, the theatre was shut down.

No one saw those musicians or their conductor again.”
― Sarah J. Maas, Heir of Fire
