Bonnie Burstow
“Often father and daughter look down on mother (woman) together. They exchange meaningful glances when she misses a point. They agree that she is not bright as they are, cannot reason as they do. This collusion does not save the daughter from the mother’s fate.”
Bonnie Burstow, Radical Feminist Therapy: Working in the Context of Violence

محمد شحرور
“وما لم ينهض عقل إصلاحي إنساني قمين بأن يزيل عن عيون المسلمين غشاوة القناعة بما يلفّقه أصحاب الأيديولوجيات التي تصادر الإنسان والحقيقة معاً، فسيظل من الصعب على المسلمين أن يقاوموا آلـة التدليج باسم الدين والتي لا تجد الإنسان الحر الذي يجرؤ على أن يقف سداً في وجهها محاولاً انتشال نفسه أولاً من الاستغلال في معتركات السياسة.”
محمد شحرور, ‫القصص القرآني: الجزء الأول، مدخل إلى القصص وقصّة آدم‬

Simone de Beauvoir
“If so few female geniuses are found in history, it is because society denies them any means of expression.”
Simone de Beauvoir, The Second Sex

Virginia Woolf
“Yes, I deserve a spring–I owe nobody nothing.”
Virginia Woolf, A Writer's Diary

Reni Eddo-Lodge
“The mess we are living in is a deliberate one. If it was created by people, it can be dismantled by people, and it can be rebuilt in a way that serves all, rather than a selfish, hoarding few.”
Reni Eddo-Lodge, Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race
