“This is a man's first, last, and greatest fear: a world that exists empty of him.”
― Ava Reid, Lady Macbeth

“But it only takes a crack in the foundation of the world to bring careful architecture, strong with centuries, crumbling down. A small blade cuts the water and ripples outward like an echo. And then the world beneath shows itself, first as green shoots in the dirt. And then comes a woman, a witch, tearing her way through the green with her teeth.”
― Ava Reid, Lady Macbeth

“If she were a man, he would not ask her this. For men there is no debt of blood which goes unpaid. If the world tips in another's favor, it must be made to tip back again. But the world is never in a woman's favor. She cannot tip the scale. The only choice is: live the same mute, unjust life you have always lived, or tear apart the world itself.”
― Ava Reid, Lady Macbeth

“There is no honor, after all, in a seed that sprouts daughters.”
― Ava Reid, Lady Macbeth
