Of course, marriage is far from good in Egypt. Our mullahs say that it is the will of Allah that women be subservient to men. But that is not what I read in the Quran.

“And to think that I was actually entertaining accepting that prat for a suitor! I will tell you one thing, Eleanora—I am modifying my qualifications for potential husbands going forward. And they are going to include not being an utter villain!” She raised her voice, shouting across the ridge. “ Did you hear that, you pigeon-livered ratbag!? ”

Lol, i love her

“I am not magical!” Neil shouted.

And Jacobs can't tell if you're lying 💀

“You’re too clever not to know what we’re walking into,” Neil went on. “You know perfectly well how dangerous it’s going to be. You’re just… choosing to be courageous, over and over again, even when the whole world rises up against you. Aren’t you?”

He's right she really is amazing.
