When I was a girl, I loved reading. An archaic pastime, I know; the index and download are faster, more efficient, offering superior retention and acquisition of knowledge. This is How You Lose the Time War

Quote:- When I was assigned the color blue, I was assigned how I should live. I was assigned a specific type of clothes, toys, and interests. Each individual has different capabilities and hence different interests. Imagine what would happen if someone with no hands would be asked to draw? He might achieve it somehow, but it would be an excruciating and tiring process. This is what happens when we develop a confident expectation from either Gender.
Know 'YOUR' Norms

Quote:- When I was born, my parents were not aware that they were necessarily determining my behavior. They followed everyone around them. If I had been a girl, they would have painted my room pink instead of blue. Their attitude towards me would have been entirely different. All of this because they just wanted me to fit in. They wanted me to be 'normal.' They wanted to give me a 'normal' childhood. They did not know that they were paving the way for me to lead a 'normal' life in doing so. In a way, they were instructed by the society to do so.

Quote:- When I was little, my mother used to tell me that a woman becomes invisible to men at a certain age. Perhaps that's why she let him commit the acts that he did. She would become visible only then, once she'd served a purpose in his agenda, and she knew the secret would forever bind him to her.

Quote:- When I Was One-And-TwentyWhen I was one-and-twenty I heard a wise man say,`Give crowns and pounds and guineas But not your heart away;Give pearls away and rubies But keep your fancy free.'But I was one-and-twenty No use to talk to me. When I was one-and-twenty I heard him say again,`The heart out of the bosom Was never given in vain;'Tis paid with sighs a plenty And sold for endless rue.'And I am two-and-twenty And oh, 'tis true, 'tis true.

How To Dance In Time

Quote:- When I was very young and in the cave of Trophonius I forgot to laugh. Then, when I got older, when I opened my eyes and saw the real world, I began to laugh and I haven’t stopped since. I saw that the meaning of life was to get a livelihood, that the goal of life was to be a High Court judge, that the bright joy of love was to marry a well-off girl, that the blessing of friendship was to help each other out of a financial tight spot, that wisdom was what the majority said it was, that passion was to give a speech, that courage was to risk being fined 10 rix-dollars, that cordiality was to say ‘You’re welcome’ after a meal, and that the fear of God was to go to communion once a year. That’s what I saw. And I laughed.
Either/Or: A Fragment of Life

Quote:- When I was young, I forgot how to laugh in the cave of Trophonius; when I was older, I opened my eyes and beheld reality, at which I began to laugh, and since then, I have not stopped laughing. I saw that the meaning of life was to secure a livelihood, and that its goal was to attain a high position; that love’s rich dream was marriage with an heiress; that friendship’s blessing was help in financial difficulties; that wisdom was what the majority assumed it to be; that enthusiasm consisted in making a speech; that it was courage to risk the loss of ten dollars; that kindness consisted in saying, You are welcome, at the dinner table; that piety consisted in going to communion once a year. This I saw, and I laughed.

Quote:- When I was your age, art was a lonely thing: no galleries, no collecting, no critics, no money. We didn't have mentors. We didn't have parents. We were alone. But it was a great time, because we had nothing to lose and a vision to gain.
