“I never could understand why some writers treat women as helpless. Every woman I know is strong in her own unique way.”

“Never let a beautiful woman pick your path for you when there is a man in her line of sight”

“The training of a Mord-Sith takes years - to learn to handle the pain. I guess it's also why only women are Mord-Sith, men are too weak.”

“I will have to admit, though, that I will never look at an apple in quite the same way.”

“That's why your lot in life isn't fate. I don't have any say in much of my life, but I make whatever choices I can make in my own rational best interest. It's my choice to fix those stairs and make the place I live a little better instead of whining and waiting and hoping for someone else to do something for me. I have pride that I know how to do that for myself.”

“Laugh all you want. I know my own worth and don't need to prove it to someone who doesn't know theirs.”

“As you learn to be other than Mord-Sith, like I learned as I grew up, you'll find that being a friend is to like a person for who they are, even the parts you don't understand. The reasons you like them makes the things you don't understand unimportant. You don't have to understand, or do the same, or live their lives for them. If you truly care for them, then you want them to be who they are; that was why you liked them in the first place.”
