More of Vanessa's books…
Betty Friedan
"It is easier to live through someone else than to complete yourself. The freedom to lead and plan your own life is frightening if you have never faced it before. It is frightening when a woman finally realizes that there is no answer to the question 'who am I' except the voice inside herself."
Betty Friedan


José Saramago
"...but it is also true, if this brings her any consolation, that if, before every action, we were to begin weighing up the consequences, thinking about them in earnest, first the immediate consequences, then the probably, then the possible, then the imaginable ones, we should never move beyond the point where our first thought brought us to a halt."
José Saramago


Friedrich Nietzsche
"The snake which cannot cast its skin has to die. As well the minds which are prevented from changing their opinions; they cease to be mind."
Friedrich Nietzsche


Eleanor Roosevelt
"Women are like teabags; you never know how strong they are until they're put in hot water."
Eleanor Roosevelt


Friedrich Nietzsche
"In individuals, insanity is rare; but in groups, parties, nations and epochs, it is the rule."
Friedrich Nietzsche
