Maria Shriver
“The most fundamental aggression to ourselves, the most fundamental harm we can do to ourselves, is to remain ignorant by not having the courage and the respect to look at ourselves honestly and gently.” —Pema Chödrön”
Maria Shriver, I've Been Thinking . . .: Reflections, Prayers, and Meditations for a Meaningful Life

Lindy West
“So fine, if you insist. This is a witch hunt. We're witches, and we're hunting you.”
Lindy West, The Witches Are Coming

Lindy West
“Ever notice how men’s idea of Hell is always rape? (Man, wait till they hear about Earth!)”
Lindy West, The Witches are Coming

Richard Wagamese
“Teachings come from everywhere when you open yourself to them. That’s the trick of it really, to open yourself to everything and everything opens itself to you.”
Richard Wagamese, Embers: One Ojibway's Meditations

Barbra Streisand
“Language gives us an insight into the way women are viewed in a male-dominated society . . . A man is commanding—a woman is demanding. A man is forceful—a woman is pushy. A man is uncompromising—a woman is a ball-breaker. A man is a perfectionist—a woman’s a pain in the ass. He’s assertive—she’s aggressive. He strategizes—she manipulates. He shows leadership—she’s controlling. He’s committed—she’s obsessed. He’s persevering—she’s relentless. He sticks to his guns—she’s stubborn. If a man wants to get it right, he’s looked up to and respected. If a woman wants to get it right, she’s difficult and impossible. If he acts, produces, and directs, he’s called multitalented. If she does the same thing, she’s called vain and egotistical.”
Barbra Streisand, My Name Is Barbra
