Famous quotes containing the words equality and/or act:
“Im tired of earning my own living, paying my own bills, raising my own child. Im tired of the sound of my own voice crying out in the wilderness, raving on about equality and justice and a new social order.... Self-sufficiency is exhausting. Autonomy is lonely. Its so hard to be a feminist if you are a woman.”
—Jane OReilly, U.S. feminist and humorist. The Girl I Left Behind, ch. 7 (1980)
“Idealism sees the world in God. It beholds the whole circle of persons and things, of actions and events, of country and religion, not as painfully accumulated, atom after atom, act after act, in an aged creeping Past, but as one vast picture, which God paints on the instant eternity, for the contemplation of the soul.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
