Just like a murderer jumps out of nowhere in an alley, love jumped out in front of us and struck us both at once.
Mikhail Bulgakov, The Master and Margarita

Quote
What was this power, this insidious threat, this invisible gun to her head that controlled her life . . . this terror of being called names? She had stayed a virgin so she wouldn't be called a tramp or a slut; had married so she wouldn't be called an old maid; faked orgasms so she wouldn't be called frigid; had children so she wouldn't be called barren; had not been a feminist because she didn't want to be called queer and a man hater; never nagged or raised her voice so she wouldn't be called a bitch . . . She had done all that and yet, still, this stranger had dragged her into the gutter with the names that men call women when they are angry.
Fannie Flagg, Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe
