Amanda Montell
“Simply put, slurs go out of style at the same time the underlying belief in them does.”
Amanda Montell, Wordslut: A Feminist Guide to Taking Back the English Language

Amanda Montell
“I think the golden rule for men should be: If you’re a man, don’t say anything to a woman on the street that you wouldn’t want a man saying to you in prison.”
Amanda Montell, Wordslut: A Feminist Guide to Taking Back the English Language

Amanda Montell
“In my college sociolinguistics classes, I started learning about some of the subtle ways gender stereotypes are hiding in English . . . like how the term penetration implies (and reinforces) the idea that sex is from the male perspective. Like sex is defined as something a man does to a woman. The opposite might be envelopment or enclosure. Can you imagine how different life would be if that’s how we referred to sex? If women were linguistically framed as the protagonists of any given sexual scenario, could that potentially mean that a woman’s orgasm as opposed to a dude’s would be seen as the proverbial climax—the ultimate goal? Questions like that blew my mind.”
Amanda Montell, Wordslut: A Feminist Guide to Taking Back the English Language

Hank Green
“I had a very happy childhood; I just wasn’t a very happy child.”
Hank Green, An Absolutely Remarkable Thing

Hank Green
“You will always struggle with not feeling productive until you accept that your own joy can be something you produce. It is not the only thing you will make, nor should it be, but it is something valuable and beautiful.”
Hank Green, A Beautifully Foolish Endeavor
