“War is what happens when language fails.”
― Margaret Atwood

“As a woman I have no country. As a woman I want no country. As a woman, my country is the whole world.”
― Virginia Woolf

“I sink down into my body as into a swamp, fenland, where only I know the footing….
I’m a cloud, congealed around a central object, the shape of a pear, which is hard and more real than I am and glows red within its translucent wrapping. Inside it is a space, huge as the sky at night and dark and curved like that, though black-red rather than black.”
― Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid’s Tale

“What you risk reveals what you value.”
― Jeanette Winterson, Written on the Body
