Bina Quotes

“Sacrifice is a stupid thing that women do.
Don't do it.
The men don't notice.

So you're only making more work for the women who'll have to repair you.
That's more than a warning.
It is an order.
Be prepared to be unpopular.”

But about every twelve there's a long thirst only ever relieved by the right cup. Am I right?

Oh you are. You're absolutely right.”
― Anakana Schofield, Bina

“You stood up for innocents!
Now we'll stand up for you.
Oh God
Please don't.
Everyone just lie down and have a nap.
A never-ending one.”
― Anakana Schofield, Bina
