Famous quotes containing the words feminist, literary and/or critics:

    All of women’s aspirations—whether for education, work, or any form of self-determination—ultimately rest on their ability to decide whether and when to bear children. For this reason, reproductive freedom has always been the most popular item in each of the successive feminist agendas—and the most heavily assaulted target of each backlash.
    Susan Faludi (20th century)

    The literary “fellow travelers” of the Revolution.
    Leon Trotsky (1879–1940)

    Some have at first for wits, then poets passed,
    Turned critics next, and proved plain fools at last.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
