Melinda French Gates
“The gender imbalance in unpaid work is such a compelling subject for me in part because it’s a common burden that binds many women together, but also because the causes of the imbalance run so deep that you cannot solve them with a technical fix. You have to renegotiate the relationship. To me, no question is more important than this one: Does your primary relationship have love and respect and reciprocity and a sense of teamwork and belonging and mutual growth? I believe all of us ask ourselves this question in one way or another—because I think it is one of the greatest longings of life.”
Melinda Gates, The Moment of Lift: How Empowering Women Changes the World

“Be fearless. Be tenacious. Go after what you want. Be a leader. Take control. Don't like how things are managed? Change the status quo. Be a disruptor. Galvanize, inspire, lead, get results. Stand resolute in the face of critics, detractors, naysayers. Their no is your yes. Make a difference. Change the narrative. Be a monumental success and a paradigm for forward, sometimes unorthodox, always creative thinking. This is what makes you a trailblazer, a standard bearer and history maker!! Oh, unless you are a powerful, black woman (or simply a WOMAN)with a voice that moves the needle. Then, you are a troublemaker, angry, stupid, menopausal, looking for attention? Women don't owe anyone an apology or explanation for being everything those part of an unevolved faction of society believes is only reserved for men. Work with us and be great, or get out of our way so we can continue what we started a lifetime ago. Proud of you Stacey Abrams and of all women who refuse to be relegated to a status of mediocrity. "Still, I rise!”

Avijeet Das
“A woman is not a toy or a plaything. A woman is a friend, companion, and support of a man. A woman is an equal of a man. A woman shows a man what love and care is all about. A woman makes a house into a home. A woman bears children and carries forward the hope of past generation to the future generation. A woman has dreams and hopes of her own. If you consider yourself a man then you must love and support the women you meet in your life, but don't ever try to take advantage of them, or to bring them down.”
Avijeet Das

“The common thread between all accomplished, professional women is confidence. They are self-assured. They are not concerned with what someone else is doing because they are focused on the next goal. That is the mindset, the seed, I hope to plant inside you. It all begins with knowing and loving who you are. -Liz Faublas, Keynote Speech St. Joseph High School Women's Professional Day”

“That something? That thing you long for way more than good chocolate or a week in the Caribbean? It’s the full, uninhibited expression
of your soul. It’s the essence of who you are and why you’re here. I also believe it to be the thing that your family, and the world, needs
from you most.”

Lucy  Carter
“But women will be sanctified through childbearing, IF they continue to live in love, faith, holiness, and modesty.” The verse states that childbirth can be one method of being sanctified, but sanctification through childbirth is not unconditional: a woman still has to have biblical values such as “love, faith, holiness, and modesty.” Furthermore, in the paragraph that preceded the paragraph containing 1 Timothy 2:15, it states, “Women who claim to be devoted to God should make themselves attractive by the good deeds they do.” The verse directly states that women who claim to be devoted to God should judge themselves by their good deeds---not by other factors such as fertility.”
Lucy Carter, Feminism and Biblical Hermeneutics

Aida Mandic
“The Dark Cloud
Is the sadness and anger that you experience sometimes
Is the number of friends you lost because of rape crimes
Is the mood of women in Juarez, Mexico that are scared of walking down the street because they see the rapists around the corner
Is the disrespect that you endured because you were a “foreigner”
Aida Mandic, The Dark Cloud

Aida Mandic
“The Dark Cloud
Is the nightmare you get every single night because evil likes to rule
Is the horror of having to see your privileged, spoiled, and rich rapist walking in school
Is the lack of love victims get so no one hands them a tissue
Is the chocolate éclair of spine that politicians have when they are presented with an issue”
Aida Mandic, The Dark Cloud

Aida Mandic
“The Dark Cloud
Is the decision I could have made to go into a homicidal rage when my bullies laughed at my father’s leg because he was shot in his ankle during the Bosnian War
Is the rage I felt when 4 of my friends were raped in college because rapists like to roar
Is the fierce determination I have to make sure that no woman ever gets raped
Is the tragic end of girls and babies who were slaughtered while their rapists escaped”
Aida Mandic, The Dark Cloud
