Famous quotes containing the words trail, access and/or points:

    “Most of us don’t have mothers who blazed a trail for us—at least, not all the way. Coming of age before or during the inception of the women’s movement, whether as working parents or homemakers, whether married or divorced, our mothers faced conundrums—what should they be? how should they act?—that became our uncertainties.”
    —Anne Roiphe (20th century)

    “The nature of women’s oppression is unique: women are oppressed as women, regardless of class or race; some women have access to significant wealth, but that wealth does not signify power; women are to be found everywhere, but own or control no appreciable territory; women live with those who oppress them, sleep with them, have their children—we are tangled, hopelessly it seems, in the gut of the machinery and way of life which is ruinous to us.”
    —Andrea Dworkin (b. 1946)

    “Mankind is not a circle with a single center but an ellipse with two focal points of which facts are one and ideas the other.”
    —Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
