“She could not understand how she was here, when she had never said yes to being brought anywhere. She could not remember speaking to him, much less agreeing. She was beginning to learn the danger of silence, and that someone who wishes to hear a yes will not go out of his way to listen for a no.”

Susanna Clarke
“The gentlemen among my readers will smile to themselves and say that women never did understand business, but the ladies may agree with me that Mrs Brandy understood her business very well, for the chief business of Mrs Brandy's life was to make Stephen Black as much in love with her as she was with him.”
Susanna Clarke, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell

Terry Pratchett
“Vimes felt a sudden surge of civic pride. There had to be something right about a citizenry which, when faced with catastrophe, thought about selling sausages to the participants.”
Terry Pratchett, Guards! Guards!

Gemma Hartley, Fed Up: Emotional Labor, Women, and the Way Forward
