Quote by Windry Ramadhina

“Kompromi tidak akan membunuhmu, Mahoni. Kau tidak akan kehilangan jati dirimu hanya gara-gara mendesain kolam dengan pancuran air bertingkat.' 'Ya, aku tahu.' 'Sebaliknya kau bisa mewujudkan impian seseorang dengan kompromi. Itu sesuatu yang kita lakukan setiap saat tanpa sadar. Di rumah. Dengan keluarga kita.' 'Aku tidak punya keluarga, ingat?' Simon - Mahoni”

“The black mother perceives destruction at every door, ruination at each window, and even she herself is not beyond her own suspicion. She questions whether she loves her children enough- or more terribly, does she love them too much? Do her looks cause embarrassment- or even terrifying, is she so attractive her sons begin to desire her and her daughters begin to hate her. If she is unmarried, the challenges are increased. Her singleness indicates she has rejected or has been rejected by her mate. Yet she is raising children who will become mates. Beyond her door, all authority is in the hands of people who do not look or think or act like her children. Teachers, doctors, sales, clerks, policemen, welfare workers who are white and exert control over her family’s moods, conditions and personality, yet within the home, she must display a right to rule which at any moment, by a knock at the door, or a ring in the telephone, can be exposed as false. In the face of this contradictions she must provide a blanket of stability, which warms but does not suffocate, and she must tell her children the truth about the power of white power without suggesting that it cannot be challenged.”
