" "As I do next to all women who glow with this kind of femininity, I feel like an impostor, a poor imitation of my gender.

Additional quotes by Elif Şafak
Don't ask yourself what kind of love you should seek, spiritual or material, divine or mundane, Eastern or Western. Divisions only lead to more divisions. Love has no labels, no definitions. It is what it is, pure and simple. Love is the water of life and a lover is a soul of fire! The universe turns differently when fire loves water.
