“Feminism is a political project about what could be. It's always looking forward, invested in futures we can't quite grasp yet. It's a way of wishing, hoping, aiming, at everything that has been deemed impossible.”
― Lola Olufemi, Feminism, Interrupted: Disrupting Power

“There was always someone somewhere discovering a different life, a different experience than the day before, stepping off into uncharted territory. But I wasn't getting anywhere. I couldn't move; in fact, I was being pulled away, slipping further every second from the blinding light of that reality.”
― Mieko Kawakami, Breasts and Eggs

“It feels like I’m trapped inside my body. It decides when I get hungry, and when I’ll get my period. From birth to death, you have to keep eating and making money just to stay alive.”
― Mieko Kawakami, Breasts and Eggs

“A feminism that seeks power instead of questioning it does not care about justice.”
― Lola Olufemi, Feminism, Interrupted: Disrupting Power
