“But all of life is one great tragedy for a woman. You're born, you have a brief, shining moment when you're in control, you matter, you age, you die. Each passing day is a small death that prepares you for the end.”
Ek Sathue, youthjuice

Jay Kristoff
“The sweetness of the fruit is but the prelude to decay. Dying hast thou been, since the day ye were first born.”
Jay Kristoff, Empire of the Vampire

R.F. Kuang
“That's the beauty of learning a new language. It should feel like an enormous undertaking. It ought to intimidate you. It makes you appreciate the complexity of the ones you know already.”
R.F. Kuang, Babel

“Er valt een hoop te zeggen voor het blijven vechten voor het leven, maar misschien valt er soms nog wel meer te zeggen voor het vechten om rustig te mogen sterven.”
Heleen Lameijer, Op de spoedeisende hulp

“When a woman is assaulted, one of the first questions people ask is, Did you say no? This question assumes that the answer was always yes, and that it is her job to revoke the agreement. To defuse the bomb she was given. But why are they allowed to touch us until we physically fight them off? Why is the door open until we have to slam it shut?”
Chanel Miller, Know My Name: A Memoir
