Tao Te Ching

“The censors who sliced the pages did not destroy the history; they only hampered our ability to see it... There are architectural tributes to the lives and importance of these women in enduring structures as varied as the Taj Mahal of India and the Great Wall of China. The music of Puccini, the plays of Schiller, the poetry of Chaucer, and even the dances of Mongolian wrestlers keep the stories alive.”

— Jack Weatherford 1945 CE –
from Secret History of the Mongol Queens
