More quotes by Gloria Steinem
There's no emotion more revolutionary than empathy.
Gloria Steinem
For me, writing is the only thing that passes the three tests of metier: (1) when I'm doing it, I don't feel that I should be doing something else instead: (2) it produces a sense of accomplishment and, nce in a while, pride and (3) it's frightening.
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
Intelligence without character is a dangerous thing.
Gloria Steinem
There's no greater gift than thinking that you had some impact on the world, for the better.
Gloria Steinem
Racism is not real, it's made up, it's cruel, it can be stopped.
Gloria Steinem
Women are never again going to be mindless coffee-makers or mindless policy-makers in politics.
Gloria Steinem
Transformation happens in small groups. Each person can speak and all listen.

It's important that we recognize how extreme the Republicans are in almost every case and how against our self-interest it is to vote for them whether or not we are disappointed with the current crew. At least they believe in the Constitution. At least they have an idea of economic justice. The Republicans are devoted to creating more rich folks.
Gloria Steinem
An education is not a thing one gets, but a lifelong process.
Gloria Steinem
The surest way to be alone is to get married.
Gloria Steinem
In every century, there are a handful of writers who help the human race to evolve. Andrea is one of them.
Gloria Steinem
Whatever a 'superior' group has will be used to justify its superiority, and whatever an 'inferior' group has will be used to justify its plight. Black men were given poorly paid jobs because they were said to be 'stronger' than white men, while all women were relegated to poorly paid jobs because they were said to be 'weaker.
Gloria Steinem
Before feminism, work was largely defined as what men did or would do. Thus, a working woman was someone who labored outside the home for money, masculine-style.
Gloria Steinem
If you consider that the gender roles are just political, then what you come to see is that the full circle of human qualities is divided up so that two-thirds are masculine and one-third is feminine. Women are missing more of their human qualities, so you'll find us on the fore-front of trying to change this.
Gloria Steinem
Religion is often politics made sacred.
Gloria Steinem
I'm more often confronted by women who come from religious traditions and don't feel that they have a place in the feminist movement. I've felt pressure when reporters asked me, Do you believe in God? I do say, No. I believe in people.
Gloria Steinem
The ends and means are a seamless web.
Gloria Steinem
You have no choice but to live in the present, if you're really being open to events and people as they come along.
