Nadia Hashimi
“It's time to undo Rahim.”
Nadia Hashimi, The Pearl That Broke Its Shell

“Okay, okay. I can do this, I can do this just breathe. Mentally I prepared myself but it didn't help with the feeling of jumping off a cliff deep in my belly.”
AJ. Young, My Mate The Monster

Gabriel García Márquez
“It was against all scientific reason for two people who hardly knew each other, with no ties at all between them, with different characters, different upbringings, and even different genders, to suddenly find themselves committed to living together, to sleeping in the same bed, to sharing two destinies that perhaps were fated to go in opposite directions.”
Gabriel Garcí­a Márquez, Love in the Time of Cholera

Pearl S. Buck
“Ton père et le sien, en amis fraternels, jurèrent de s'unir par leurs enfants. Ton fiancé avait alors six ans. Tu naquis dans le cercle de cette année-là. Telle était ta destinée. Tu fus élevée dans ce dessein.”
Pearl Buck

Padma Lakshmi
“I once asked her if she was happy. “That depends on what I am able to get done today,” she said, laughing. She told me that the completion of her daily tasks was the only thing she felt she had control over. They were a form of meditation, of salve. Kept busy, she had no time to ruminate and no time for opinions, certainly not feminist ones. I pressed her: “I mean, are you happy with your life, Rajima?” “I don’t know,” she said uncomfortably, as if she’d never really considered such a question. “When there is little you can do, you do what you can.” Happiness for my grandmother seemed to be a verb rather than a noun. She had so little control over her own life. Yet she took control, out of thin air for herself, when she could.”
Padma Lakshmi, Love, Loss, and What We Ate: A Memoir
