God Told

Famous quotes containing the words god and/or told:

“If God is male, then male is God. The divine patriarch castrates women as long as he is allowed to live on in the human imagination.”
—Mary Daly (b. 1928)

“To accuse another of having weak kidneys, lungs, or heart, is not a crime; on the contrary, saying he has a weak brain is a crime. To be considered stupid and to be told so is more painful than being called gluttonous, mendacious, violent, lascivious, lazy, cowardly: every weakness, every vice, has found its defenders, its rhetoric, its ennoblement and exaltation, but stupidity hasn’t.”
—Primo Levi (1919–1987)
