Zora Neale Hurston
“Sometimes, I feel discriminated against, but it does not make me angry. It merely astonishes me. How can any deny themselves the pleasure of my company? It’s beyond me.”
Zora Neale Hurston

David Sedaris
“My hands tend to be full enough dealing with people who hate me for who I am. Concentrate too hard on the millions of people who hate you for what you are and you're likely to turn into one of those unkempt, sloppy dressers who sag beneath the weight of the two hundred political buttons they wear pinned to their coats and knapsacks.”
David Sedaris

Maya Angelou
“When someone shows you who they are believe them the first time.”
Maya Angelou

Margaret Atwood
“Don't let the bastards grind you down.”
Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid’s Tale

Charlotte Perkins Gilman
“There is no female mind. The brain is not an organ of sex. As well speak of a female liver.”
Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Women and Economics
