Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love

Pema Chödrön

Pema Chodron

Leonard Cohen

It was just the other night.
Most of you was naked
Ah, but some of you was light.”
Leonard Cohen

“The point is not for women simply to take power out of men’s hands, since that wouldn’t change anything about the world. It’s a question precisely of destroying that notion of power.”
Simon De Beavoir
