Act quickly, think slowly.

I have always been principally interested in men for sex. I've always thought any sane woman would be a lover of women because loving men is such a mess. I have always wished I'd fall in love with a woman. Damn.

Perhaps catastrophe is the natural human environment, and even though we spend a good deal of energy trying to get away from it, we are programmed for survival amid catastrophe.

Human beings have an inalienable right to invent themselves; when that right is pre-empted it is called brain-washing.

Germaine Greer 238 quotes

Marriage made more sense when...

Marriage made more sense when it was indissoluble. It's the woman trying to cope with the strains of a one-parent family who will suffer most from the relaxation of the divorce laws.

Revolution is the festival of the oppressed.

Guilt is one side of a nasty ...

Guilt is one side of a nasty triangle; the other two are shame and stigma. This grim coalition combines to inculpate women themselves of the crimes committed against them.

Only one thing is certain: if pot is legalized, it won't be for our benefit but for the authorities. To have it legalized will also be to lose control of it.

Germaine Greer 238 quotes

Until women themselves reject...

Until women themselves reject stigma and refuse to feel shame for the way others treat them, they have no hope of achieving full human stature.

Germaine Greer 238 quotes

Rescuing women from their bur...

Rescuing women from their burden of unwarranted guilt is going to require 'educational practices and socializing agents' even more effective than the ones that have been relentlessly loading female humans with responsibility for other people's behavior from their earliest childhood.

Germaine Greer 238 quotes

Never advise anyone to go to ...

Never advise anyone to go to war or to get married. Write down the advice of him who loves you, though you like it not at present. He that has no children brings them up well.

Supergroupies don't have to hang around hotel corridors. When you are one, as I have been, you get invited backstage.

Man is jealous because of his amour propre; woman is jealous because of her lack of it.

The house wife is an unpaid employee in her husband's house in return for the security of being a permanent employee.

Germaine Greer 238 quotes

All societies on the verge of death are masculine. A society can survive with only one man; no society will survive a shortage of women.

Germaine Greer 238 quotes

Libraries are reservoirs of strength, grace and wit, reminders of order, calm and continuity, lakes of mental energy, neither warm nor cold, light nor dark.

Psychoanalysis is the confession without absolution.
