Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
Some people ask, 'Why the word 'feminist'? Why not just say you are a believer in human rights, or something like that?' Because that would be dishonest. Feminism is, of course, part of human rights in general — but to choose to use the vague expression 'human rights' is to deny the specific and particular problem of gender.

Jesus was not this wimpy little guy who walked around...For a true writer, each book should be a new beginning...A house is not a home unless it contains food...The rule is perfect...To me, I think people who don't think...Don't give up. Don't lose hope. Don't sell out...
