“Several classical sayings that one likes to repeat had quite a different meaning from the ones later times attributed to them.”

“Mother goddesses are just as silly a notion as father gods. If a revival of the myths of these cults gives woman emotional satisfaction, it does so at the price of obscuring the real conditions of life. This is why they were invented in the first place.”
