    “Spread outward. Crack the round dome. Break through.

    Or down a well. Breathe freedom, oh, my native,
    In the space of horizons that neither love nor hate.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “For what we call illusions are often, in truth, a wider vision of past and present realities—a willing movement of a man’s soul with the larger sweep of the world’s forces—a movement towards a more assured end than the chances of a single life.”
    —George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    “The preservation of life seems to be rather a slogan than a genuine goal of the anti-abortion forces; what they want is control. Control over behavior: power over women. Women in the anti-choice movement want to share in male power over women, and do so by denying their own womanhood, their own rights and responsibilities.”
    —Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)

    “In this great association we know no North, no South, no East, no West. This has been our pride for all these years. We have no political party. We never have inquired what anybody’s religion is. All we ever have asked is simply, “Do you believe in perfect equality for women?” This is the one article in our creed.”
    —Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
