    “To me the “female principle” is, or at least historically has been, basically anarchic. It values order without constraint, rule by custom not by force. It has been the male who enforces order, who constructs power structures, who makes, enforces, and breaks laws.”
    —Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)

    “We are volcanoes. When we women offer our experience as our truth, as human truth, all the maps change. There are new mountains.”
    —Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)
