“Men don't cry. So I destroyed my liver drowned my grief in bottles, watching the glass empty like my soul, sip by bitter sip. Men don't cry. So I destroyed my lungs, turned them into chimneys, letting smoke carry the weight of what I couldn't say. Men don't cry. We were told to hold it in, to be strong to bear it quietly, So we found other ways to bleed other ways to break, because even when it hurt, tears were never an Option.”

“With angry sulking men, the secret was holding your ground. You didn't get rebellious, no—that was asking for a slap to the face. But you didn't self-flagellate, either. When you acted like you ought to be whipped, that only confirmed to them that you should. One should never cower. The secret rather was to keep talking as if you deserved no punishment at all, and then to distract them with something they wanted more than they wanted to hurt you.”
