Quote by Faheemah Isaacs

“I try hard to look at that girl in the mirror, To tell her not to give up. Maybe if she had a better image of herself she wouldn’t be so lost in her illusions. Maybe if she had a better image of herself she wouldn’t give society a chance to name her. Maybe if she had a better image of herself she wouldn’t give herself another name.”

“Queen Mahapajapati was not like other women in the palace. She frequently told Yasodhara that women possessed as much wisdom and strength as men and needed to shoulder the responsibilities of society also. While women did possess a special ability to create warmth and happiness in their families, there was no reason for them to remain only in the kitchen or in the palace. Gotami found in her daughter-in-law a woman with whom she could share true friendship, for like herself, Yasodhara was thoughtful and independent. Not only did the queen offer Yasodhara her approval, but she worked alongside Yasodhara as well.”
