"I think the very restrictions which were put on woman which made her emphasize the personal world caused something very good to be born. Whereas men dealt interms of nations, in terms of statistics, abstract ideology, woman, because her world was restricted to the personal, was more human. Now that she is beginning to step beyond her confines, hope she can bring to the world the sense of the personal value of human beings, some empathy and some sympathy." (Anais Nin, A Woman Speaks)
