Obviously, the anti-ERA people are tickled about my ordeal because it proves that the ERA breaks up families. When they point out that feminism is a dangerous thing, I just say marriage is pretty precarious too.

The guiding principle of my life, 'the means are the ends,' has taught me that our participation in a corrupt system facilitates it and corrupts and therefore defeats us.

people are strong despite suffering, not because of it.

Some people always assume that if you mention a problem, you caused it.

Freedom is necessary for honesty, honesty for integrity, integrity for power, power for creativity, and all of them for intimacy.

A friend said to me, 'Be glad for your troubles - they strengthen you.' Well, if that's the truth, I'm going to be so strong they'll have to beat me to death!
