Top Feminism Quotes
Feminism - the word - can give us a handle, a rallying point, a common ground, and help us build a bridge. Why not claim the gift of the word as a place to begin?
Betty Buckley
The young women in my classes are feisty and clever and believe, often with the passion of youthful optimism, that feminism is a battle already won. I worry for them - and for my daughters, too.
Louise Brown
My feminism is humanism, with the weakest being those who I represent, and that includes many beings and life forms, including some men.
Sandra Cisneros

Isabel Allende
One of the greatest gifts of Black feminism to ourselves has been to make it a little easier simply to be Black and female.
