Famous quotes containing the words visual, identity and/or plays:
“For women ... bras, panties, bathing suits, and other stereotypical gear are visual reminders of a commercial, idealized feminine image that our real and diverse female bodies can’t possibly fit. Without these visual references, each individual woman’s body demands to be accepted on its own terms. We stop being comparatives. We begin to be unique.”
—Gloria Steinem (b. 1934)
“All that remains is the mad desire for present identity through a woman.”
—Max Frisch (1911–1991)
“For if he meets another cat he will kiss her in kindness.
For when he takes his prey he plays with it to give it chance.”
—Christopher Smart (1722–1771)
