“Much of women’s history leans on a trope of ‘exceptional’ women: ‘girlbosses’ who achieved incredible things against the impossibly patriarchal odds of their day. Such women did, of course, exist, and we should celebrate them. But we could easily describe all women in the past in this way. All of the women in The Waiting Game existed close to the centre of power and acted in ways that influenced the broader historical narrative. All occasionally stepped outside the boundaries that society allegedly dictated for their sex.”
Nicola Clark, The Waiting Game: The Untold Story of the Women Who Served the Tudor Queens: A History

Peter F. Hamilton
“Cast aside your numbers and your coarse voice and learn how to sing, sweet Ozzie. Song is the destiny of all who live who love to live.”
Peter F. Hamilton, Pandora's Star

N.K. Jemisin
“Power is not a thing that can be given.”
N.K. Jemisin, The Awakened Kingdom

Stephanie Lehmann
“His ridiculous Victorian ideas reminded me that my sense of worthlessness was a reasonable response to a society bent on limiting the sphere of women.”
Stephanie Lehmann, Astor Place Vintage

“Women's history does not need to be exceptional to be relevant.”
Nicola Clark, The Waiting Game: The Untold Story of the Women Who Served the Tudor Queens
