“You'd like Freedom, Truth, and Justice, wouldn't you, Comrade Sergeant?' said Reg encouragingly.

'But...well, Reg, tomorrow the sun will come up again, and I'm pretty sure that whatever happens we won't have found Freedom, and there won't be a whole lot of Justice, and I'm damn sure we won't have found Truth. But it's just possible that I might get a hard-boiled egg.”

“brother

that the walls of
a woman's body
were once a fortress
protecting you from
a world you were

that she has no place
defending you.”
― Jasmin Kaur, When You Ask Me Where I'm Going
