Mala Mala Jong

Famous quotes containing the words mala and/or jong:

    From old Florentine novels, and also—from life: “Buona femmina e mala femmina vuol bastone.” Sacchetti, Nov. 86.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    To name oneself is the first act of both the poet and the revolutionary. When we take away the right to an individual name, we symbolically take away the right to be an individual. Immigration officials did this to refugees; husbands routinely do it to wives.
    —Erica Jong (b. 1942)
