Eve Ensler Quotes
I was a young feminist in the '70s. Feminism saved my life. It gave me a life. But I saw how so much of what people were saying was not matching up with what they were doing.

We were talking about standing up for our rights, and women weren't leaving abusive relationships with men. There were just so many disconnects.
