Share your favorite quote by a woman on feminism. Please include the quote itself and the name of the person who said it. I'll check quotes to verify that they are from the named individual, and I reserve the right to accept or reject quotes based on my assessment of their accuracy, verifiability, relevance to feminist history, and appropriate and civil language and tone. I give preference to (verifiable) quotes by well-known women not already represented in the collection, and will include more pro-feminist than anti-feminist quotes because the topic is feminism not anti-feminism.

Feminism quotes by Jeri Marie Hallberg
- In finding your website, I had to stop and think for a few moments to ask myself, " what is feminism mind thought? Being raised in a patriarchal family of origin, a premium was placed on being male. As the mother of a beautiful 20 year old young woman and a precious 9 year old boy, I must be very careful in both of their continual perceptions of self, identity, smeness and differences. I feel as though I am constantly on guard from the ever present and oft times mind boggling and unrelenting influences projected by the media. So if necessited to produce and or present one quote regarding the topic of feminism, that quote, my this person is "Trust myself."
