“How do you take the fight out of half the population and render them willing slaves? You tell them they're meant to do nothing but serve from the minute they're born. You tell them they're weak.

― Xiran Jay Zhao, Iron Widow

“I've been told endless lies since I was born. That I was not kind enough, considerate enough, humble enough, honorable enough, pretty enough, pleasing enough. And if I failed to meet the needs of those around me, I did not deserve to live.

― Xiran Jay Zhao, Iron Widow

“You're my polar star. I'll go wherever you guide me.”
― Xiran Jay Zhao, Iron Widow
