“It was heady stuff, recognizing ourselves as an oppressed class, but the level of discussion was poor. We explained systemic discrimination, and men looked prettily confused and said: But, I like women.”
—Jane OReilly, U.S. feminist and humorist. The Girl I Left Behind, ch. 2 (1980)
“A strong person makes the law and custom null before his own will.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“The peculiarity of sculpture is that it creates a three-dimensional object in space. Painting may strive to give on a two-dimensional plane, the illusion of space, but it is space itself as a perceived quantity that becomes the peculiar concern of the sculptor. We may say that for the painter space is a luxury; for the sculptor it is a necessity.”
—Sir Herbert Read (18931968)
