“It will take all your heart, it will take all your breath
It will be short, it will not be simple”

“Feminism means finally that we renounce our obedience to the fathers and recognise that the world they have described is not the whole world. Masculine ideologies are the creation of masculine subjectivity; they are neither objective, nor value-free, nor inclusively "human." Feminism implies that we recognise for us, the distortion, of male-created ideologies, and that we proceed to think, and act, out of that recognition.”
― Adrienne Rich, On Lies, Secrets, and Silence. Selected Prose 1966-1978
