Bad Girls Quotes

“And then they are falling, their hair streaming, the dog wailing against her throat. Jude’s laugh is as sharp and delirious as wind pummeling the splintered lines of broken glass. It’s a terrible sound. The mad smile on her face, the wide stretch of her lids around her eyes, is unpleasant, and yet Maya finds herself mirroring the expression—a shriek of terrified joy breaking from her throat as they hit the water.”

“It took a special kind of guts to be a fuck-up as a woman, I thought. To say to hell with being a nice girl, the responsible one, the one who makes sure the man takes care of himself and eats properly and doesn’t take too many drugs. To be just as nihilistic and self-destructive as a man, knowing all along that you’ll get crucified for it, because somehow, the world will make everything your fault.

“The term "good girl" is a reward slapped onto women who do not pose a threat to the status quo. If it makes you feel nice to be called a "good girl", I want you to sit down and think hard. The women who stood up and voted when it was illegal for them to do so, when it was a "sin" for them to vote, were not "good girls". They were the bad girls. The women who ran in marathons disguised as men when women were an abomination to sports, were not "good girls". They were the bad girls. The first female pilot, the first female engineer, the first ever woman who wore red lipstick. All bad girls. Sit down and think hard. If you want to receive rewards from people for falling into their lines, then move out of the way for the women who blaze paths that you will one day walk on.”

“Frustrated, Viserra next turned to her brother Baelon in hopes of rescue, if court gossip can be believed. Slipping past his guards into his bedchamber one night, she disrobed and waited for him, making free with the prince's wine while she lingered. When Prince Baelon finally appeared, he found her drunk and naked in his bed and sent her on her way. The princess was so unsteady that she required the help of two maids and a knight of the Kingsguard to get her safely back to her own apartments.”

“I don’t have any money,” he tells her. “I know,” she replies, leaning over and unearthing a wallet. “But I found some.” “‘Found.’” She pulls out a card and puts the green leather square onto the console. The edge is riddled with tooth marks, and Nova frowns. “That’s Harper’s.” “I’ll buy him a present. He won’t mind.”
