A.S. Byatt
“Any woman can get any man, if she's dogged enough and doesn't love him too much.”
A.S. Byatt, The Virgin in the Garden

“Every system is perfectly designed to get the results it gets.” Meaning that once you change your aspiration—when you set your sights on different results—the system you have is wrong, by definition. Because the system is designed, intentionally or not, to yield the results you got yesterday.”
Dan Heath, Reset: How to Change What's Not Working

“The dancer's body in performance is, therefore, an act of mediation between the physical vocabulary of the dance form and personal conceptions of identity.”
Barbara Sellers-Young, Belly Dance: Orientalism, Transnationalism, And Harem Fantasy

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
“Many of us didn’t marry the woman we truly loved. We married the woman that was around when we were ready to
marry.”
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Americanah

“In fact, I think an essential part of being a woman is finding that part of you that others would see as monstrous. Finding it and nurturing it so that it does not overtake who you are; if you ignore it, or try to hide it, that is when other people will turn it against you.”
Nataly Gruender, Medusa
