War on Women

Before you think good or evil, who are you?

Huineng

Ultimately evil is done not so much by evil people,

but by good people who do not know themselves

and who do not probe deeply.

Reinhold Niebuhr

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world;

the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt

the world to himself. Therefore all progress

depends on the unreasonable man.

George Bernard Shaw

I sometimes try to imagine what would have

happened if we'd known the bonobo first

and the chimpanzee only later - or not at all.

The discussion about human evolution might not

revolve as much around violence, warfare and

male dominance, but rather around sexuality,

empathy, caring and cooperation.

Frans de Waal

The arc of the moral universe is long,

but it bends towards justice.

Martin Luther King, Jr.

It is impossible to think of the welfare of

the world unless the condition of women

is improved. It is not possible for a bird

to fly on only one wing.

Swami Vivekananda

The number of people with any criteria for

distinguishing between good and evil

is very small.

T.S. Eliot

One's life has value so long as one attributes

value to the life of others, by means of love,

friendship, indignation and compassion.

Simone de Beauvoir

I think there is a connection between the way

we treat animals and the way we treat people

who are at the bottom of the hierarchy.

Angela Davis

The worst thing that we can do as women

is not stand up for each other, and this is

something we can practice every day,

no matter where we are and what we do

- women sticking up for other women,

choosing to protect and celebrate each other

instead of competing or critizing each other.

Amal Clooney

The question is not whether we will be extremists,

but what kind of extremists we will be. For hate

or for love? For the preservation of injustice

or for the extension of justice?

Martin Luther King, Jr.

Competition is the law of the jungle,

but cooperation is the law of civilization.

Peter Kropotkin

When I despair, I remember that all through

history the way of truth and love has always

won. There have been tyrants and murderers

and for a time they seem invincible, but in

the end they always fall... think of it, always.

Mahatma Gandhi
