Life After Life
I mean what else is there for a woman to do if she doesn't want to go from the parental to the marital home with nothing in between? 'An educated woman,'Millie amended. 'An educated woman,' Ursula agreed.

The White Queen
Nu vreau să mă gândesc la faptul de a fi o femeie care nu poate trăi în noua lume pe care o construiesc bărbații. Nu vreau să mă gândesc cum s-a ridicat Melusina din fântâna ei arteziană și s-a închis într-un castel, cât timp sunt refugiată în sanctuar și noi, toate fiicele Melusinei suntem captive într-un loc, unde nu putem fi pe de-a întregul noi însele".

Good and Mad: The
The task- especially for the newly awakened, the newly angry, especially for the white women, for whom incentives to renounce their rage will be highest in coming years-is to keep going, to not turn back, to not give in to the easier path, the one where we weren't angry all the time, where we accepted the comforts of racial and economic advantage that will always be on offer to those who don't challenge power. Our job is to stay angry . . . perhaps for a very long time.

Why Be Happy When You Could Be
The school song at Accrington High School for Girls was 'Let Us Now Praise Famous Men,' a terrible choice for an all-girls' school, but one that helped turn me into a feminist. Where were the famous women--indeed any women--and why weren't we praising them? I vowed to myself that I would be famous and that I would come back and be praised.

Why Be Happy When You Could Be
Love is vivid. I never wanted the pale version.. Love is full strenght. I never wanted the diluted version. I never shied away from love's hugeness but I had no idea that love could be as reliable as the sun. The daily rising of love.

Why Be Happy When You Could Be
Books, for me, are a home. Books don't make a home - they are one, in the sense that just as you do with a door, you open a book, and you go inside. Inside there is a different kind of time and space.There is warmth there too - a hearth. I sit down with a book and I'm warm.

A Room of One's Own
The history of men's opposition to women's emancipation is more interesting perhaps than the story of that emancipation itself.
