I would say that each of us has only one thing to gain from the feminist movement: Our whole humanity. Because gender has wrongly told us that some things are masculine and some things are feminine... which is bullshit.

... the art of politics is to be ahead of your time--about six months will do it. Any more than that, and people forget you were there.

Feminism isn't called the longest revolution for nothing.

The road itself is informative, because it forces you to respond spontaneously and to encounter the unexpected. It forces you to reassess what you felt about people or issues or places, and it forces you to live in the present.

I feel that the people I see in the media are sometimes more real than I am, which is utter bullshit.

I began to understand with a terrible sureness that we teach what we need to learn and write what we need to know.

Too much of our lives corresponds to the 'lost-wallet' theory of life. You lose something, spend a long time finding it, and then feel grateful to be back where you started.
