Food Sovereignty Movement

Famous quotes containing the words food, sovereignty and/or movement:

    Feed him ye must, whose food fills you.
    And that this pleasure is like raine,
    Not sent ye for to drowne your paine,
    But for to make it spring againe.
    Robert Herrick (1591–1674)

    ... if we can imagine the art of fiction come alive and standing in our midst, she would undoubtedly bid us to break her and bully her, as well as honour and love her, for so her youth is renewed and her sovereignty assured.
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

    The preservation of life seems to be rather a slogan than a genuine goal of the anti-abortion forces; what they want is control. Control over behavior: power over women. Women in the anti-choice movement want to share in male power over women, and do so by denying their own womanhood, their own rights and responsibilities.
    Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)
