Andrea's quotes

Love

"I want every girl in the world to pick up a guitar and start screaming."

— Courtney Love

Ann Coulter is my least favorite person

"I think [women] should be armed but should not vote...women have no capacity to understand how money is earned. They have a lot of ideas on how to spend it...it's always more money on education, more money on child care, more money on day care."

— Ann Coulter

Self Esteem

For us to have self-esteem is truly an act of revolution, and our revolution is long overdue.

— Margaret Cho

Free Expression

The free expression of the hopes and aspirations of a people is the greatest and only safety in a sane society.

— Emma Goldman

Friedan

If divorce has increased by one thousand percent, don't blame the women's movement. Blame the obsolete sex roles on which our marriages were based.

— Betty Friedan

Pat Buchanan

Rail as they will about 'discrimination,' women are simply not endowed by nature with the same measures of single-minded ambition and the will to succeed in the fiercely competitive world of Western capitalism.

— Pat Buchanan

Jim O'Rourke

Women of the world, take over. 'Cause if you don't the world will come to an end, and it won't take long.

— Jim O'Rourke

Jerry Fagwell

I listen to feminists and all these radical gals - most of them are failures. They've blown it. Some of them have been married, but they married some Casper Milquetoast who asked permission to go to the bathroom. These women just need a man in the house. That's all they need. Most of the feminists need a man to tell them what time of day it is and to lead them home. And they blew it and they're mad at all men. Feminists hate men. They're sexist. They hate men - that's their problem.

— Jerry Falwell

BK

We want revolution, Grrrl style, now!

— Bikini Kill

Margaret Fuller

What woman needs is not as a woman to act or rule, but as a nature to grow, as an intellect to discern, as a soul to live freely, and unimpeded to unfold such powers as were given her.

— Margaret Fuller

Betty Friedan

A baked potato is not as big as the world...

— Betty Friedan

The growing boredom of women with the empty, narrow image of the women's magazines may be the most hopeful sign of the image's divorce from reality.

— Betty Friedan
