Irin Carmon
“The pedestal upon which women have been placed has all too often, upon closer inspection, been revealed as a cage.”
Irin Carmon, Notorious RBG: The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Gabriel García Márquez
“It was inevitable: the scent of bitter almonds always reminded him of the fate of unrequited love. Dr. Juvenal Urbino noticed it as soon as he entered the still darkened house where he has hurried on an urgent call to attend a case that for him had lost all urgency many years before. The Antillean refugee Jeremiah de Saint-Amour, disabled war veteran, photographer of children, and his most sympathetic opponent in chess, had escaped the torments of memory with the aromatic fumes of gold cyanide.”
Gabriel Garcí­a Márquez, Love in the Time of Cholera

Warsan Shire
“No one leaves home unless home is the mouth of a shark.”
Warsan Shire, Bless the Daughter Raised by a Voice in Her Head

Clemantine Wamariya
“Nobody is who you think they are at first glance. We need to see beyond the projections we cast onto each other. Each of us is so much grander, more nuanced, and more extraordinary than anybody thinks, including ourselves.”
Clemantine Wamariya, The Girl Who Smiled Beads: A Story of War and What Comes After

Gabriel García Márquez
“One night she came back from her daily walk stunned by the revelation that one could be happy not only without love, but despite it.”
Gabriel Garcí­a Márquez, Love in the Time of Cholera
