More quotes by Gloria Steinem
In almost any situation, if you have been the powerful one, which would tend to be men more than women but not always, it's very important to listen as much as you talk. If you have been the less powerful one, it's very important to talk as much as you listen.
Gloria Steinem
Many ideas have been transformed by adding one crucial adjective-women's bank, women's music, women's studies, women's caucus. That adjective did more than change a phrase. It implied a lot of new content: child care, flexible work hours, new standards of creditworthiness, new symbolism, new lyrics.
Gloria Steinem
Marriage works best for men than women. The two happiest groups are married men and unmarried women.
Gloria Steinem
Obviously, untangling sex from aggression and violence or the threat of it is going to take a very long time. And the process is going to be greatly resisted as a challenge to the very heart of male dominance and male centrality.
Gloria Steinem
The cleanup costs of polluting a river, injecting pesticides into the ground water, or putting noxious gases into the air have not been figured into the cost of the manufacturing or agribusiness that put them there in the first place. Historically, the economic incentive has been to pollute.
Gloria Steinem
We have to know before we can act.
Gloria Steinem
Pornography is about dominance. Erotica is about mutuality.
Gloria Steinem
More and more men are raising children or want to be close to their kids. They don't want to just lead work-obsessed lives and end up 50 years later with an engraved watch.
Gloria Steinem
A rejection of the way a woman speaks is often a way of blaming or dismissing her without dealing with the content of what she is saying.
Gloria Steinem
In order to make a choice, you need the power to see there is one.
Gloria Steinem
God may be in the details, but the goddess is in the questions. Once we begin to ask them, there's no turning back.
Gloria Steinem
I think that we need to change the culture, not blame the people that are playing the only game that exists.
Gloria Steinem
Our children are the only people on whom we can safely take revenge for what was done to us.
Gloria Steinem
The point of the journey is not just healing. It's also recovering the truest, most spontaneous, joyful, and creative core of ourselves.
Gloria Steinem
One day an army of gray-haired women may quietly take over the Earth!
Gloria Steinem
I think of the future in two ways - survival plus moving forward. Under survival, I would put all the efforts to save the female half of the world from violence directed at us specifically because we are female.
Gloria Steinem
It is more rewarding to watch money change the world than watch it accumulate.
Gloria Steinem
There is a naive belief that injustice only had to be pointed out in order to be cured.
Gloria Steinem
Women are never again going to be mindless coffee-makers or mindless policy-makers in politics.
Gloria Steinem
I continued for too long to do things that I already knew how to do, or to write stories that I was assigned instead of fighting for stories that I couldn't get, or doing ones that I thought were important on my own. The wasting of time is the thing I worry about the most. Because time is all there is.
