I wish that every human life might be pure transparent freedom – Simone DeBeauvoir

The ceiling isn’t glass; it’s a very dense layer of men.–Anne Jardim

The mistake a lot of politicians make is in forgetting they’ve been appointed and thinking they’ve been anointed. – Mildred Webster Pepper

There is no such thing as being non-political. Just by making a decision to stay out of politics you are making the decision to allow others to shape politics and exert power over you. And if you are alienated from the current political system, then just by staying out of it you do nothing to change it, you simply entrench it.― Joan Kirner
