Quote by Sabahattin Ali

“The truth was she could not find it in her to love me. And with good reason. Never in my life has anyone loved me, ever. In any case, women were mysterious creatures. Passing my mind over all the women I had known or observed, I was driven to conclude that true love was beyond them. When they were in a position to love, they did not. Instead, they ached for the unattainable — the opportunities missed, the salve that their broken hearts longed for — thereby mistaking their yearning for love.”

“Listen, You fire breathing dragon, With a furnace in your mouth and stardust in your marrow, You belong where you are, You’ve lived in the ancient deities and will continue to live in the rubble long after the last God is forgotten. All those times, You have found yourself wailing at the moon, Remember, Your bones are awakening to the pagan blood spilt in the name of new Gods. The wilderness calling is not madness, It is Mother Gaea, summoning you home.”

“Are men spoilt as children? Are they overindulged by their mothers and society into thinking they are justified in constantly centring their suffering? Why is everyone doing so much work on toxic masculinity and male mental health and barely any on women's?”

“Very few women who are my age are still selling records or making waves in the music industry (Sia wore a bag on her head and a wig to cover her face), and yet that's not because we no longer have things to say. Of course we do. I have so much to say and the experience to match it. It's because the media insist on focusing on a woman's age. The sooner we stop putting this ridiculous pressure on ourselves to be young forever and society learns to deal with the fact that women's faces will change as they get older, the better.”
