Xiran Jay Zhao Quote: “Since the day I was born, the world had told me I must accept whatever woth men assign me. And maybe, despite my nonstop rebellion, I did. They told me to choose between accepting their doctrine or dying, and I did. I chose death. It was the surrender that made me fearless.”
Xiran Jay Zhao Quote: “When a woman gets pregnant, her body is suddenly everybody’s business. Endless restrictions could be clamped onto her “for the good of the baby.” There’s no better tool of control.”
Xiran Jay Zhao Quote: “Never appease. No one’s ever been respected for appeasing. The only thing you did was let them know there are no consequences to treating you like trash.”
Xiran Jay Zhao Quote: “So many attempts to stop me from existing comfortably in my own skin, yet here I am, doing what I want with a boy nobody appointed to me. And it’s not dirtying me. It will not ruin me. It is not obscene, filthy, or shameful.”
Xiran Jay Zhao Quote: “How many aspects of the piloting system – and the world in general – are based on sterile facts, and how many are just illusions? Illusions that reinforce themselves generation after generation, because people don’t question the convenient boxes they’re penned into, the arbitrary rules they live by?”
Xiran Jay Zhao Quote: “Even though everything feels impossible, even though I will never be the same, even though all I want to do is lie down and give up, I make myself keep going.”
Xiran Jay Zhao Quote: “Yizhi gapes at me. Then a disbelieving laugh rolls out of him. “All right, let me make this clear: Wu Zetian, you inspire me. Whenever i lose hope that the world can change, I remember you. I remember how you fight for what you want, no matter what anyone says, no matter what stands in your way.” He draws me into his arms and murmurs into my hair. “You’re my polar star, I’ll go wherever you guide me.”
Xiran Jay Zhao Quote: “Some people have learned the unfortunate lesson that causing pain to others alleviates their own. But maybe they truly haven’t been taught anything else. Maybe they can change, if given the opportunity. A little compassion goes a long way.”
Xiran Jay Zhao Quote: “Still, I’m not prepared for the anguish that lacerates through me with the large movement. Static froths through my eyes. I tense back a scream as I steady my head against his shoulder.”

Xiran Jay Zhao Quote: “And, in the end, isn’t that all dignity is? The boundaries and values you decide for yourself? I know what matters most to me, and it has nothing to do with any semblance of “purity.” I will not make myself small and crumple into a sad creature of fear that lives to please Li Shimin in hopes of earning his mercy.”
Xiran Jay Zhao Quote: “This is my admittedly graceless strategy: annihilate every center of power, so everything will collapse into chaos and people will have no choice but to obey the new most powerful thing – me.”
Xiran Jay Zhao Quote: “Maybe I don’t know everything I think I do. Everyone lives in a different world. So much of the time, people make decisions they don’t want to.”
Xiran Jay Zhao Quote: “Where do you think your family’s misery comes from, Zetian? Don’t you think they’d become different people if you could get them out of this place and give them all the food and security they’ve lacked in their lives?- Xiuying.”
Xiran Jay Zhao Quote: “Media traffic doesn’t care about right or wrong. Every click on a scandalous headline brings profit; every view of a condemning picture generates revenue. If you’re a big enough cash cow, the media companies will lobby and bribe every government connection they have to keep from losing you.”
Xiran Jay Zhao Quote: “I swear, people cannot make up their minds about who are supposed to be the clueless infants who can’t live without supervision: men or women.”
Xiran Jay Zhao Quote: “Attention, all Gao Enterprise personnel!” Yizhi shouts into his wristlet between ragged breaths. “New bargain: defy us, and all of you and your families will die! Obey us, and you’ll keep everything you have and more!”
Xiran Jay Zhao Quote: “Funny, how a memory born to be discarded can become so much more significant.”
