Today, the reason we haven't found our grail, the key to who we are as women, is because we look for it in worlds of false power, the very worlds that took it away from us in the first place.

'We will light up like lamps, and the world will never be the same again.'

Ideas are such are a little overrated really; it's the work behind the idea that's the important thing.

How our perceptions are our only internal map of the world, how there are places that claim you and places that warn you away. How you can fall in love with the light.
