Many people know so little about what is beyond their short range of experience. They look within themselves - and find nothing! Therefore they conclude that there is nothing outside themselves either.
I believe that as women we must commit ourselves to sustaining the progress made by our foremothers who fought so hard for women's equality and liberation.
Again it may be said that to love justice and equality the people need no great effort of virtue it is sufficient that they love themselves.
I believe there is complete equality between men and women. And I believe those passages in the New Testament not by Jesus but by Paul that say women should not adorn themselves they should always wear hats or color their hair in church - things like that - I think they are signs of the times and should not apply to modern-day life.
Until women learn to want economic independence and until they work out a way to get this independence without denying themselves the joys of love and motherhood it seems to me feminism has no roots.
I want to organize so that women see ourselves as people who are entitled to power entitled to leadership.
All men are created equal it is only men themselves who place themselves above equality.
Moral codes adjust themselves to environmental conditions.
A very Faustian choice is upon us: whether to accept our corrosive and risky behavior as the unavoidable price of population and economic growth or to take stock of ourselves and search for a new environmental ethic.
People blame their environment. There is only one person to blame - and only one - themselves.
I'm not only a lawyer I have a post doctorate degree in federal tax law from William and Mary. I work in serious scholarship and work in the United States federal tax court. My husband and I raised five kids. We've raised 23 foster children. We've applied ourselves to education reform. We started a charter school for at-risk kids.
I tell young people to prepare themselves as best they can for a world that grows more challenging every day-get the best education they can and couple that education with real-life experience in social justice work.
The message of women's liberation is that women can love each other and ourselves against our degrading education.
After completing a Delaware State education they were afforded opportunities beyond anything they might have imagined - and they opened doors for themselves that surely would have remained closed if they only had a high school education.
My parents were keen for me to have the education they themselves never had. They weren't able to guide me towards particular books but they encouraged me to read which I did randomly and compulsively.
We must believe in the power of education. We must respect just laws. We must love ourselves our old and or young our women as well as our men.
The family teaches us about the importance of knowledge education hard work and effort. It teaches us about enjoying ourselves having fun keeping fit and healthy.
There is not to be found in all history any miracle attested by a sufficient number of men of such unquestioned good sense education and learning as to secure us against all delusion in themselves.
The object of education is to prepare the young to educate themselves throughout their lives.
Children have to be educated but they have also to be left to educate themselves.
I spent three days a week for 10 years educating myself in the public library and it's better than college. People should educate themselves - you can get a complete education for no money. At the end of 10 years I had read every book in the library and I'd written a thousand stories.
They should hold themselves absolutely upon the immovable foundation of truth and nature whereby alone they can save themselves from misapprehensions and from the danger of being entirely carried away from reality into mere dreams and fictions.
Each has its lesson for our dreams in sooth come they in shape of demons gods or elves are allegories with deep hearts of truth that tell us solemn secrets of ourselves.
My mother dreamed dreams for Joaquin and for me long before we could dream them for ourselves.
You make your first album you make some money and you feel like you still have to show face like 'I still go to the projects.' I'm like why? Your job is to inspire people from your neighborhood to get out. You grew up there. What makes you think it's so cool?
