1 " Playing the victim role: Manipulator portrays him- or herself as a victim of circumstance or of someone else's behavior in order to gain pity, sympathy or evoke compassion and thereby get something from another. Caring and conscientious people cannot stand to see anyone suffering and the manipulator often finds it easy to play on sympathy to get cooperation. "
― George K. Simon Jr. , In Sheep's Clothing: Understanding and Dealing with Manipulative People
2 " Any relationship that developed power dynamics, where she thought she had the right to dictate someone else's behavior or have him dictate hers, was ended almost immediately. She could not stand the thought of hands on her that presumed she belonged to them. "
― Thomm Quackenbush , Artificial Gods (Night's Dream, #3)
