Ordinary is a word that has no meaning.
Robin Morgan
The subtlest and most vicious aspect of women's oppression is that we have been conditioned to believe we are not oppressed, blinded so as not to see our own condition.
Robin Morgan
An indigenous feminism has been present in every culture in the world and in every period of history since the suppression of women began.
Robin Morgan
I feel that 'man-hating' is an honourable and viable political act, that the oppressed have a right to class-hatred against the class that is oppressing them.
Robin Morgan

Robin Morgan

Robin Morgan
The egg cackles and lays the chicken.
Robin Morgan
I am an artist and a political being as well.
Robin Morgan
Feminism is for all women and girls, not a privileged few or one ethnicity, religion, age, sexual preference, ability, region or hemisphere.
Robin Morgan
For a poet, making poems is a way of viewing the world, being in the world, breathing.
Robin Morgan
A genuine Left doesn't consider anyone's suffering irrelevant or titillating nor does it function as a microcosm of capitalist economy, with men competing for power and status at the top, and women doing all the work at the bottom.... Goodbye to all that.
Robin Morgan
... censorship often boils down to some male judges getting to read a lot of dirty books--with one hand.
Robin Morgan
being Cassandra is a principled choice when there is cause for alarm.
Robin Morgan
... life is a comedy far darker than drama. It just takes time to learn what to smile at.
