Visual Blind Bidding

Famous quotes containing the words visual, blind and/or bidding:

    “For women ... bras, panties, bathing suits, and other stereotypical gear are visual reminders of a commercial, idealized feminine image that our real and diverse female bodies can’t possibly fit. Without these visual references, each individual woman’s body demands to be accepted on its own terms. We stop being comparatives. We begin to be unique.”
    —Gloria Steinem (b. 1934)

    “They be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.”
    —Bible: New Testament Matthew 15:14.

    “A simple and independent mind does not toil at the bidding of any prince.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
