Text Quotes
I grew up in a tradition where having ideas and contributing to the community and creating art that had an impact on the world mattered. That’s part of the Jewish tradition.  (Eve Ensler Quotes) We get off track. Capitalism takes us off track. You get off the real and get on the wheel. The wheel becomes the winning and losing, the succeeding and failing, the I will achieve. All that stuff becomes so preoccupying, particularly if you’re born with low self-esteem, or no sense of yourself, or even if you’re just born in the consumer culture. It’s very powerful.  (Eve Ensler Quotes) Go so far away that you stop being afraid of not coming back  (Eve Ensler Quotes) Whatever culture, whatever country, girls are taught to please others as opposed to pleasing themselves.  (Eve Ensler Quotes) When you listen to other women’s stories, you begin to understand your own better, and you begin to find ways back through and with each other.  (Eve Ensler Quotes) Freedom, that’s the kind of power I’m interested in. When we help each other get free, then it’s not about anybody being on top or anybody being on the bottom. It’s about being together, in a community.  (Eve Ensler Quotes) When you destroy a population, once femicide happens, we’re going to see the end of humanity, because I don’t know how you sustain a future without vitalised women.  (Eve Ensler Quotes) I think for me, happiness is crucial, but I think we think that happiness comes from amassing goods and getting things and being loved and being successful, when in fact my experience of happiness comes when you give everything away, when you serve people, when you’re watching something you do make somebody happy - that’s when happiness happens.  (Eve Ensler Quotes) Dance is holy, sexual, and it’s a way of being very powerful and a little dangerous without being violent.  (Eve Ensler Quotes) When you bring consciousness to anything, things begin to shift  (Eve Ensler Quotes) Unless men are active allies, we’ll never end violence against women and girls  (Eve Ensler Quotes) Since cancer, I feel like I have dreams rather than ambitions, visions rather than plans  (Eve Ensler Quotes) Stop fixing your bodies and start fixing the world!  (Eve Ensler Quotes) Danger lurks when people are dissociated and detached from their own story or feelings  (Eve Ensler Quotes) One of the most radical things women can do is to love their body  (Eve Ensler Quotes) Decide whether you want to be liked or admired  (Eve Ensler Quotes) Real security is contemplating death, not pretending it doesn’t exist  (Eve Ensler Quotes) My commitment originated in my own story and my own relationship to violence  (Eve Ensler Quotes) Women are the primary resource of the planet. They give birth, we come from them. They are mothers, they are visionaries, they are the future. If we can figure out how to make women feel safe and honor women, it would be parallel or equal to honoring life itself  (Eve Ensler Quotes) Stop trying to fix your body. It was never broken  (Eve Ensler Quotes) I think what all of us have in common is that we’ve been taught and trained and programmed to focus on fixing and mutilating ourselves. That’s a core reason why women do not have power in the world  (Eve Ensler Quotes) I think to be cut off from your heart is the greatest tyranny in the world  (Eve Ensler Quotes) It is almost a guarantee that in the pursuit of security you will become more insecure. Inherent in the quest for security is its undoing  (Eve Ensler Quotes) Security isn’t what I hunger for. I hunger for change. I hunger for connection  (Eve Ensler Quotes) The minute someone tells you you have cancer, it’s kind of like you die. You really do die. It’s like you get that you’re mortal  (Eve Ensler Quotes) You will touch this joy and you will suddenly know it is what you were looking for your whole life, but you were afraid to even acknowledge the absence because the hunger for it was so encompassing  (Eve Ensler Quotes) For many years now, I feel like my own body struggle has been linked and connected with women I meet in the world. I think we’re in this together  (Eve Ensler Quotes) When we give in the world what we want the most, we heal the broken part inside each of us  (Eve Ensler Quotes) Naming things, breaking through taboos and denial is the most dangerous, terrifying, and crucial work. This has to happen in spite of political climates or coercions, in spite of careers being won or lost, in spite of the fear of being criticized, outcast, or disliked. I believe freedom begins with naming things. Humanity is preserved by it  (Eve Ensler Quotes) Dance is holy, sexual, and it’s a way of being very powerful and a little dangerous without being violent  (Eve Ensler Quotes)
