“I have yet to hear a man ask for advice on how to combine marriage and a career.”

Dreaming, after all, is a form of planning.

I believe that transgender people, including those who have transitioned, are living out real, authentic lives. Those lives should be celebrated, not questioned. Their health care decisions should be theirs and theirs alone to make.

A woman without a man is like a fish without a bicycle.

Women are not going to be equal outside the home until men are equal in it.

Writing keeps me from believing everything I read.

We’ve begun to raise daughters more like sons… but few have the courage to raise our sons more like our daughters.

Each others’ lives are our best textbooks.

The authority of any governing institution must stop at its citizen’s skin.

So why is the sex barrier not taken as seriously as the racial one?

Whatever you want to do,do it now.

Being married is like having somebody permanently in your corner. It feels limitless, not limited.

Once we give up searching for approval we often find it easier to earn respect.

Women can be vivacious. We are allowed more varieties of facial expression and gestures. Men must be rocklike.

Any woman who chooses to behave like a full human being should be warned that the armies of the status quo will treat her as something of a dirty joke. That’s their natural and first weapon. She will need her sisterhood.

The story of women’s struggle for equality belongs to no single feminist nor to any one organization but to the collective efforts of all who care about human rights

Feminism has never been about getting a job for one woman. It’s about making life more fair for women everywhere. It’s not about a piece of the existing pie; there are too many of us for that. It’s about baking a new pie.

One can give advice comfortably from a safe port.

It is easy to give advice from a port of safety.

My mother gave me this book called Feature Films at Used Car Prices by a guy named Rick Schmidt. I gotta credit the guy, cuz he gave me the most practical advice. It empowers you.

In giving advice seek to help, not to please, your friend.

There is nothing more hateful than bad advice.

I never listened to the people who said I should give it up, which is the main advice I got.

I share the same advice that my mom gave me – stay hydrated and sleep well. And that being a beautiful person on the inside is what really matters.

It is an outrage that people can take other people’s lives when they obviously haven’t got their own lives in order.
