Cixous

 Cixous, "The Laugh of the Medusa"

Response
Quote
I liked this quote because she is saying nothing will change if we don't move forward from the past.
“The future must no longer be determined by the past.”
I liked this quote because it shows good meaning.
“Let us not be trapped by an analysis still encumbered with the old automatisms.”
She is saying that women have a standard and men have a standard.
“I write woman: woman must write woman.  And man, man.”
Don't let society get to you and be who you want to be.
“Let nobody threaten you; in satisfying your desire, let not the fear of becoming the accomplice to a socially succeed the old-time fear of being ‘taken."
I like this quote because it kind of gives and inside to the author.
“As a woman, I have been clouded over by the great shadow of the scepter and been told: idolize it, that which you cannot brandish.”
