Women Who Run With the Wolves, Clarissa Pinkola Estés
“Creativity is not a solitary movement. That is its power. Whatever is touched by it, whoever hears it, sees it, senses it, knows it, is fed. That is why beholding someone else’s creative word, image, idea, fills us up, inspires us to our own creative work. A single creative act has the potential to feed a continent. One creative act can cause a torrent to break through stone.”

Andrea Dworkin, “I Want a Twenty-Four Hour-Truce During Which There Is No Rape,” originally published under the title “Talking to Men About Rape,” in Out!, Vol. 2, No. 6, April 1984; then under the current title in , No. 13, Fall 1984.
