“.so often the women seem to feel no loss, no lack, no absence when women of color are not involved.”

“any interest of the State in…an inherently hazardous procedure …has largely disappeared.”

“Civilization has always been able to substitute other methods… for those of physical strength…”

“…destroying the law may be the first step toward changing it.”

“The oppression of women acts as an escape valve for capitalism…”

“[They] deny a particular group equality of opportunity…””

“One is not born, but rather becomes, woman.”

“Every woman should be absolute mistress of her own body.”

“Around me I saw women overworked and underpaid, doing men’s work at half men’s wages”

“Perhaps it is better to wake up after all, even to suffer, rather than to remain a dupe to illusions all one’s life.”
