My fear of anger taught me nothing.

And when the sun rises we are afraid it might not remain when the sun sets we are afraid it might not rise in the morning when our stomachs are full we are afraid of indigestion when our stomachs are empty we are afraid we may never eat again when we are loved we are afraid love will vanish when we are alone we are afraid love will never return and when we speak we are afraid our words will not be heard nor welcomed but when we are silent we are still afraid So it is better to speak remembering we were never meant to survive

In other words, I would be giving in to a myth of sameness which I think can destroy us.

I am not free while any woman is unfree, even when her shackles are very different from my own.

Some women wait for themselves around the next corner and call the empty spot peace but the opposite of living is only not living and the stars do not care.

If our history has taught us anything, it is that action for change directed against the external conditions of our oppressions is not enough.

You are the one that you are looking for.
