Audre Lorde Quotes

Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.

If I didn't define myself for myself, I would be crunched into other people's fantasies for me and eaten alive.

When I dare to be powerful, to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid.

I have come to believe that caring for myself is not self indulgent. Caring for myself is an act of survival.
