Humor

"Everyone here is insane. I am the insanest of the insane."

Psychology

"I think if you had been born a boy, perhaps you would have been satisfied with what the world offered you. That is how we are alike. We saw everything that was not ours, and we hungered. Do not lose that hunger. You will always have to fight for everything. Even when you already have it, you will have to keep fighting to maintain it.

They will see any crack as evidence that they were right that a woman cannot do what you do."

Motivation

Lada glared at him until he stopped crying. Then, apparently satisfied, she toddled out of the room."
