“The full implications of feminism will evolve over time, as we organize, experiment, think, analyze, and revise our ideas and strategies in light of our experiences. No theory emerges in full detail overnight; the dominant theories of our day have expanded and changed over many decades. That it will take time should not discourage us. That we might fail to pursue our ideas - given the enormous need for them in society today - is unconscionable.” ThinkingNeedsShouldIdeasLightMightTodayGivenFailingFeminismChangedTheoryStrategyDetailsDecadesExperimentsEnormousPursueEvolveTake TimeDominantOrganizeImplicationsDiscouragingSociety Today Author:Charlotte Bunch

In the real world, you uncover an opportunity, and then you compare other opportunities with that. And you only invest in the most attractive opportunities. That's your opportunity cost.

Keats drank confusion to Newton for analyzing the rainbow, but the rainbow remained as beautiful as ever and became for many even more beautiful.
