“To me the female principle is, or at least historically has been, basically anarchic. It values order without constraint, rule by custom not by force. It has been the male who enforces order, who constructs power structures, who makes, enforces, and breaks laws.”
—Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)
“We have what I would call educational genocide. Im concerned about learning totally, but Im immersed in the disastrous record of how many black kids are going into science. They are very few and far between. Ive said that when I see more black students in the laboratories than I see on the football field, Ill be happy.”
—Jewel Plummer Cobb (b. 1924)
