Quotes by Monika Kim  (?)

“By the time you’re done with him, he’ll be begging for mercy. Who is he if he can’t control you? Is he even a man anymore? It will seem like a relief when you give him a hand, even if that hand is holding a blade. And when you take everything from him, you can say what these men say about us: He was asking for it. He was begging for it. He must have wanted it, since he didn’t fight back.”
Monika Kim, The Eyes Are the Best Part

“I’ve always been jealous of the kids who have never had to deal with this crushing pressure. They have no idea how good they have it, how lucky they are. Often, I find myself wondering: What is it like to live freely, to live a life untethered, without having to be responsible for everyone around you?”
Monika Kim, The Eyes Are the Best Part

“How do I explain to her that the home I miss isn’t a place? It’s a time when my life made sense. When things made sense.”
Monika Kim, The Eyes Are the Best Part
