“We stood up and bade each other farewell, but love and despair stood between us like two ghosts, one stretching his wings with his fingers over our throats, one weeping and the other laughing hideously.

As I took Selma's hand and put it to my lips, she came close to me and placed a kiss on my forehead, then dropped on the wooden bench. She shut her eyes and whispered softly, "Oh, Lord God, have mercy on me and mend my broken wings!”
― Kahlil Gibran, Broken Wings

“Feminism is hated because women are hated. Antifeminism is a direct expression of misogyny; it is the political defense of woman hating.”
― Andrea Dworkin, Right-Wing Women

“o büyük ve muazzam zamanda unuttum
kanatlarım çok oldu üşüyor benim
bu beyaz ıssızlıkta göğsüme düşüyor
bu yüzden eğik boynum

bir kuşun anısı kalmış bende, saklı
bundan gözlerimdeki kayalık,
içimdeki serseri buzullar

dürtme içimdeki narı
üstümde beyaz gömlek var.”
― Birhan Keskin

“Woman is not born: she is made. In the making, her humanity is destroyed. She becomes symbol of this, symbol of that: mother of the earth, slut of the universe; but she never becomes herself because it is forbidden for her to do so.”
― Andrea Dworkin
