Simone de Beauvoir
“The body is the instrument of our hold on the world.”
Simone de Beauvoir, The Second Sex

Simone de Beauvoir
“: woman is an eminently poetic reality since man projects onto her everything he is not resolved to be.”
Simone de Beauvoir, The Second Sex

Simone de Beauvoir
“The truth is that just as - biologically - males and females are never victims of one another but both victims of the species, so man and wife together undergo the oppression of an institution they did not create. If it is asserted that men oppress women, the husband is indignant; he feels that he is the one who is oppressed - and he is; but the fact is that it is the masculine code, it is the society developed by the males and in their interest, that has established woman's situation in a form that is at present a source of torment for both sexes.”
Simone de Beauvoir, The Second Sex

Theodor W. Adorno
“As naturally as the ruled always took the morality imposed upon them more seriously than did the rulers themselves, the deceived masses are today captivated by the myth of success even more than the successful are. Immovably, they insist on the very ideology which enslaves them. The misplaced love of the common people for the wrong which is done to them is a greater force than the cunning of the authorities.”
Theodor Adorno, Dialectic of Enlightenment: Philosophical Fragments

Simone de Beauvoir
“Capabilities are clearly manifested only when they have been realized.”
Simone de Beauvoir, The Second Sex
