Quotes by Elizabeth Day  (?)

“For so long, we woman have turned our anger inwards, redirecting it towards ourselves and allowing it to manifest as shame. We have told ourselves, instead, that we are sad or hormonal or stressed, but these have been placeholder emotions. And for so long we have been encouraged to do this by a misogynistic culture that realises female anger is dangerous not because it is the product of mental imbalance but because it is fuel. Female anger is power.”
Elizabeth Day, How to Fail

“I began to realise that if I never achieved anything outwardly ever again, I would still exist. The voice in my head is not who I am.”
Elizabeth Day, Failosophy: A Handbook For When Things Go Wrong

“That’s the problem with charm. It means you get away with stuff. It means you never have to develop a real character because no one remembers to look for one. They’re too busy basking in the glow of your attention. They’re too busy being impressed.”
Elizabeth Day, The Party
