“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 . . . She will need her sisterhood.”
Quote by -Gloria Steinem
“I myself cried when I got angry, then became unable to explain why I was angry in the first place. Later I would discover this was endemic among female human beings. Anger is supposed to be "unfeminine" so we suppress it -until it overflows. I could see that not speaking up made my mother feel worse. This was my first hint of the truism that depression is anger turned inward; thus women are twice as likely to be depressed. My mother paid a high price for caring so much, yet being able to do so little about it. In this way, she led me toward am activist place where she herself could never go.”
Quote by -Gloria Steinem
“You should write about take no-shit women like me. Girls need to know they can break the rules" p.79”

Quote by -Gloria Steinem
“A feminist is anyone who recognizes the equality and full humanity of women and men.”
Quote by -Gloria Steinem
“Only after I saw women who were attracted to distant, condescending, even violent men did I begin to understand that having a distant, condescending, even violent father could make those qualities seem inevitable, even feel like home. Because of my father, only kindness felt like home.”
Quote by -Gloria Steinem
“This was my first hint of the truism that depression is anger turned inward; thus women are twice as likely to be depressed.”
Quote by -Gloria Steinem
“MY LAST HOPE IS to open up the road—literally. So far it’s been overwhelmingly masculine turf. Men embody adventure, women embody hearth and home, and that has been pretty much it.”
Quote by -Gloria Steinem
“All men are children, and if you understand that, a woman understands everything.”
Quote by -Coco Chanel
“I don’t understand how a woman can leave the house without fixing herself up a little—if only out of politeness. And then, you never know, maybe that’s the day she has a date with destiny. And it’s best to be as pretty as possible for destiny.”
Quote by -Coco Chanel

Quote by -Gloria Steinem
“Men can be just as loving and nurturing as women-- it's a libel on men to say they can't-- but we all learn by example. Boys just need nurturing men in their lives so they know it's okay for them to be nurturing.”
Quote by -Gloria Steinem
“Women have to learn how to talk as much as we listen. Men have to learn how to listen as much as they talk.”
Quote by -Gloria Steinem
“Perhaps because women are seen as good listeners, I find that a traveling woman—perhaps especially a traveling feminist—becomes a kind of celestial bartender.”
Quote by -Gloria Steinem
Women have always been the strong ones of the world. The men are always seeking from women a little pillow to put their heads down on. They are always longing for the mother who held them as infants.
Quote by -Coco Chanel
