“The woman who refuses to object, who doesn’t yell and scream—there’s strength in that, and power.”

A.S.A. Harrison, The Silent Wife

Full excerpt:

The woman who refuses to object, who doesn’t yell and scream—there’s strength in that, and power. The way she overrides sentiment, won’t enter into blaming or bickering, never gives him an opening, doesn’t allow him to turn it back on her. She knows that her refusal leaves him alone with his choices.
