“I am not free while…

…any woman is unfree…

…even when her shackles are very different from my own.”

Audre Lorde

A woman without a man is like a fish without a bicycle.

— Irina Dunn

Men are afraid that women will laugh at them. Women are afraid that men will kill them.

— Margaret Atwood

The history of men’s opposition to women’s emancipation is more interesting perhaps than the story of that emancipation itself.

— Virginia Woolf


p.s.
Virginia Woolf was born in London in 1882 and, from 1915, when she published her first novel, she produced an astounding output of essays, fiction, letters and literary criticism until her untimely death…

…Unfortunately Virginia Woolf suffered a series of mental breakdowns and, in 1941, she committed suicide.

“I see you everywhere, in the stars, in the river, to me you’re everything that exists; the reality of everything.”
— Jay, you are my ev-re-thing
