“Kuitenkin puhutaan alinomaa naisen luontaisesta heikkoudesta, niin kuin muka esteenä hänen oikeuksiinsa pääsemiselle. Kasvatettakoon poikaa yhtä typerästi ja ahdasmielisesti kuin naista, puristettakoon nuorukainen kureuumiin ja katsottakoon, kuinka pitkälle hänellä voimia ja terveyttä riittää.”

“Forget the past and all your fears. Think of the super fun
That we can have. I'd love to see the beach, a shell, the sun.
...
And Miffle knows, and Toffle knows, that both have seen the end
Of fear and fright and long, dark night, now each has found a friend”

“Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested; that is, some books are to be read only in parts; others to be read, but not curiously; and some few are to be read wholly, and with diligence and attention.”

“I have a right to be angry, to show it and to use it as a motivational foundation for my struggle, just as I have a right to love and to express my love to the world and to use it as a motivational foundation for my struggle because I live in history at a time of possibility and not of determinism.”

“It's not possible to read critically if one treats reading as if it were a similar operation to buying in bulk. What's the point of boasting of having read twenty books-twenty books! Really reading involves a kind of relationship with the text, which offers itself to me and to which I give myself and through the fundamental comprehension of which I undergo the process of becoming a subject. While reading, I'm not just a captive of the mind of the text as if it were simply a product of its author. This is a vitiated form of reading that has nothing to do with thinking or teaching correctly.”
