Quotations

“We women are compelled to redefine everything, And we claim our space in this world to which we belong. We women are an irrefutable force, a living and deep river of blood, carriers of utopia. Our strength is our stubbornness, our invincible resistance.” (pats-eduent.net; photo nobel women’s initiative)
