Famous quotes containing the words diana and/or melo:

    I always draw a parallel between oppression by the regime and oppression by men. To me it is just the same. I always challenge men on why they react to oppression by the regime, but then they do exactly the same things to women that they criticize the regime for.
    Sethembile N., South African black anti-apartheid activist. As quoted in Lives of Courage, ch. 19, by Diana E. H. Russell (1989)

    his fear of the word “veil”;
    and in the shape of a ship,
    still another who slept.
    —Joáo Cabral De Melo Neto (b. 1920)
