"The freer that women become, the freer will men be. Because when you enslave someone, you are enslaved."

True strength is delicate.

"What we start with is a conviction to fulfill our being. Horses, trees fulfill themselves. Why shouldn't people."

I see no reason why I should tickle stones or waste time on polishing bronze.

"I still want to do my work. I still want to do my livingness. And I have lived. I have been fulfilled. I recognized what I had, and I never sold it short. And I ain't through yet."
