Madeleine L'Engle
“...just because we don't understand doesn't mean that the explanation doesn't exist.”
― Madeleine L'Engle, A Wrinkle in Time

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
“I think you travel to search and you come back home to find yourself there.”
― Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

Vladimir Lenin
“When a liberal is abused, he says, ‘Thank God they didn’t beat me.’ When he is beaten, he thanks God they didn’t kill him. When he is killed, he will thank God that his immortal soul has been delivered from its mortal clay.”
― Vladimir Lenin

Felicia Day
“Knowing yourself is life's eternal homework”
― Felicia Day, You're Never Weird on the Internet

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
“We teach girls to shrink themselves, to make themselves smaller. We say to girls, you can have ambition, but not too much. You should aim to be successful, but not too successful. Otherwise, you would threaten the man. Because I am female, I am expected to aspire to marriage. I am expected to make my life choices always keeping in mind that marriage is the most important. Now marriage can be a source of joy and love and mutual support but why do we teach girls to aspire to marriage and we don’t teach boys the same? We raise girls to see each other as competitors not for jobs or accomplishments, which I think can be a good thing, but for the attention of men. We teach girls that they cannot be sexual beings in the way that boys are.”
― Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, We Should All Be Feminists
