That is what I want to be remembered for. — Isaac Asimov

It is not anti-feminist for us to choose not to have abortions. But it is a feminist principle that women should have the right to choose. — Bell Hooks

Gay men share with straight men the same notions about acceptable masculinity. — Bell Hooks
