I believe that we must use language. If it is used in a feminist perspective, with a feminist sensibility, language will find itself changed in a feminist manner. It will nonetheless be the language. You can't not use this universal instrument; you can't create an artificial language, in my opinion. But naturally, each writer must use it in his/her own way.

You can't address yourself to women by speaking a language which no average woman will understand. In my opinion, it's wrong.

Representation of the world, like the world itself, is the work of men; they describe it from their own point of view, which they confuse with the absolute truth.

One's life has value so long as one attributes value to the life of others, by means of love, friendship, indignation and compassion.

It is in the knowledge of the genuine conditions of our lives that we must draw our strength to live and our reasons for living.
