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.

Each others' lives are our best textbooks.

A rejection of the way a woman speaks is often a way of blaming or dismissing her without dealing with the content of what she is saying.

One of the main problems of our time is that men are deprived of their human qualities that are wrongly called feminine, and women are deprived of their human qualities that are wrongly called masculine.

The premise of most media is that only conflict is newsworthy. And that's just not true. I think for a lot of men, too - certainly for most women - there's enough real conflict without manufacturing it. The media formula is always to have a pro and con, to say there are two sides to any issue, when in fact there may be ten sides.

Most writers write to say something about other people - and it doesn't last. Good writers write to find out about themselves - and it lasts forever.

No other form of violence is legitimate. It is never acceptable to use violence to solve a problem. Whether personal or political.
