"There are two kinds of people: those who say, 'I'll believe it when I see it,' and those who say, 'To see it, I must believe it.'"
"If you find yourself drawn to an event against all logic, go. The universe is telling you something."
"A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle."
"Don't think about making women fit the world — think about making the world fit women."
About Gloria Steinem (born 1934)
American second-wave feminist organizer, journalist, and Ms. magazine co-founder who shaped 1970s feminist politics. Closely associated with Betty Friedan (The Feminine Mystique author) and Bella Abzug (feminist Congresswoman). For an intellectual contrast, see Phyllis Schlafly, conservative activist and Eagle Forum founder — Schlafly's grassroots STOP-ERA campaign defeated the Equal Rights Amendment Steinem championed — they were the public faces of the 1970s gender debate from opposite sides.
