Want to Read $ 13.99"When it no longer would destroy a boy to be likened to a girl, when a girl feels vital doing the things she values, when it's considered as brave to be womanly as it is to be manly, than boys and girls, man and women can break out of the boxes that constrain us all"-Elizabeth Lesser, Cassandra Speaks: When Women Are the Storytellers, the Human Story Changes
"The basic belief of feminism is not that women are right and men are wrong; It is merely that women are people and therefor their voices matter, their values matter and their stories matter. It's time for women to tell their versions of what it means to be fully human. It is time for men to respect those insights and it is time for all of us to integrate them into a new story of power."-Elizabeth Lesser, Cassandra Speaks: When Women Are the Storytellers, the Human Story Changes
"That's why we tell the stories. To ease the anxiety of being soft-skinned mortals. To inspire the soul to fathom eternity. To give order to what feels out of control. To guide, to blame, to warn, to shame. To make some kind of sense out of why people do what they do, why things happen the way they happen, and how we might all meet each other and daily life with less turmoil and more stability. That's why we cling to the old stories."-Elizabeth Lesser, Cassandra Speaks: When Women Are the Storytellers, the Human Story Changes
"What if our myths and teaching tales had purposely led humanity to believe that it was the ultimate sign of strength to nurture and love? What if the urge to care for children and nature and each other had been chosen as the most important tasks of any society? What if care as opposed to conquest had been the marker of virility? What if resources were granted to the people most skilled at peace making, healing, creating and opposed to those with brute strength and a pension for violence?"-Elizabeth Lesser, Cassandra Speaks: When Women Are the Storytellers, the Human Story Changes
