"I feel quite strange. I feel as though I were some other person, in a kingdom of shadows, and can’t believe I’ll ever return to being a creature of flesh and blood."
- Simone de Beauvoir, from a letter to Jean-Paul Sartre c. October 1939 featured in Letters to Sartre

And to all of the little girls who are watching this, never doubt that you are valuable and powerful and deserving of every chance and opportunity in the world to pursue and achieve your own dreams.❞ —Hillary Clinton’s Concession Speech, 2016
