Quotes

[edit]
  • Nothing they could do would be worse than what already happens here to women, the way women are forced to live every day. Ever since we are small they tell us to be calm, to behave well, to dress a certain way, everything to find a husband. We must also study to be able to marry, because young guys today want a woman who works.
  • Have reached the height of self-determination: we no longer obey any authority, neither family nor religious. We know what we want and we make our own decisions.
  • I’m afraid for my life and the lives of my family.
  • My body belongs to me, and is not the source of anyone’s honor.
