“With her chin raised she had a look of someone older, someone knowing. I felt the force of her, a woman with confidence, a woman unrattled. Women knew women. We knew that our power was sometimes silence, sometimes distance, that we were careful, that we were shrewd. And if we were to reveal such secrets, we might become weaker, easy prey.” — Gemma Liviero
