Daughters of Bronze Quotes

“No, the love of a mother is more like lying lame before a stampede of charging horses.
There is nothing to be done.
And after everything you were has been pounded into the scorched earth, a battered heart is all that survives. Only now it is wrapped in another’s flesh. Soon, that heart will crawl, then walk, then run about you, vulnerable to the slings and spears of an indifferent world.”
― A.D. Rhine, Daughters of Bronze

“A city filled with women who fight for what they love and who laugh despite the tragedy that surrounds them daily. We may be trapped behind these walls, and our stories will surely vanish when the last of us takes her final breath. Yet neither war, nor sickness, nor enslavement can stop us from weaving our lives together. As mothers and daughters and wives. As friends.
For that is what women do.
It is what we have always done and will continue doing for as long as there are sad songs and warm lips to sing them.”
