Women needed to be liked or they'd be in trouble. A woman who is not liked is a bitch, and a bitch can hardly do anything: all avenues are closed to her. - Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
A woman's life is tougher than a banyan root, which exists without soil or water. - The Palace of Illusions by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni
