Margaret Atwood
“...women on their own, making up their minds. They wore blouses with buttons down the front that suggested the possibilities of the word undone. These women could be undone; or not. They seemed to be able to choose. We seemed to be able to choose, then. We were a society dying, said Aunt Lydia, of too much choice.”
Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid's Tale

Catherine Lacey
“She has to be careful of that. Taking care of others. It takes something, you know, it takes something from you to take care of another person and there’s only so much a person has to give.”
Catherine Lacey, Pew

Maria Isabel Barreno
“Uma das tarefas dos patrões é a de castigar os empregados e a tarefa dos empregados é a de trabalhar para os patrões a fim de estes ficarem mais ricos e mais patrões. Talvez eu um dia case com um patrão.”
Maria Isabel Barreno, Novas Cartas Portuguesas

Maria Isabel Barreno
“Desde o princípio tiveram os homens de se julgar semideuses caídos de sua graça por obra da mulher, e logo depois tiveram que se inventar redimidos através do ventre da nova mãe, essa santa, essa capaz de conhecer Deus no seu ventre e de no seu ventre incarnar o deus salvador, depois chamado o filho do homem - que ironia rebuscada - na sua vida e nos seus actos exemplares”
Maria Isabel Barreno, Novas Cartas Portuguesas

Sarah Rose Etter
“Isn't that always the way adult life begins? You think you'll become something different, something new. At first, you swim violently against the tide, your body straining until your muscles give out, until you can't push any harder, until you stop fighting and float, letting the water take you back to shore, where the rest of the world is already at the office, typing on their computers beneath fluorescent lights, toiling away in the glare of permanent productive daylight.”
Sarah Rose Etter, Ripe
