Cautious, careful people, always casting about to preserve their reputation and social standing, never can bring about a reform.

Sooner or later we all discover that the important moments in life are not the advertised ones, not the birthdays, the graduations, the weddings, not the great goals achieved.

There shall never be another season of silence until women have the same rights men have on this green earth.
