More quotes by Germaine Greer
Most women still need a room of their own and the only way to find it may be outside their own home.
Germaine Greer
Gillard is as likeable as Rudd is charmless. She is self-deprecating he is ludicrously vainglorious. She is a mistress of understatement he is a ranter.
Germaine Greer
Psychoanalysis is the confession without absolution.
Germaine Greer
Once a paper admits any principle of censorship for survival, the we-don't-want-to-do-it-but-we-don't-want-to-lose-the-printer kind of censorship, it jeopardizes the integrity of its editorial principle. It's better to print and be damned, because you'll be damned anyway.
Germaine Greer
War is the admission of defeat in the face of conflicting interests.
Germaine Greer
It takes a great deal of courage and independence to decide to design your own image instead of the one that society rewards, but it gets easier as you go along.

Germaine Greer
We can't change the moon but we can live in harmony with its tides, and we can make some ripples of our own.
Germaine Greer
The blind conviction that we have to do something about other people's reproductive behavior, and that we may have to do it whether they like it or not, derives from the assumption that the world belongs to us, who have so expertly depleted its resources, rather than to them, who have not.
Germaine Greer
No one goes to the toilet in novels. You'd think none of us had bladders.
Germaine Greer
The treatment for jaded sensibilities is not to shatter them, after all.
Germaine Greer
continuing sexual interest and perfect sexual adjustment between partners who have been together for thirty years is so difficult and rare that no one should feel guilty or inadequate for not having managed it.
Germaine Greer
I didn't fight to get women out from behind vacuum cleaners to get them onto the board of Hoover.
Germaine Greer
Love, love, love - all the wretched cant of it, masking egotism, lust, masochism, fantasy under a mythology of sentimental postures.
Germaine Greer
The drug which makes sexuality palatable in popular mythology.
Germaine Greer
