“Recognize that you are not the center of the universe. Figure out how the idea of winning and losing fits into your relationships. Be as vulnerable as you possibly can. Recognize vulnerability and empathy as strengths. Don’t allow the fact that other people are assholes to you make you into a bitter and abusive person. Commit to the revolution as a method of psychological and physical survival.”

—Kathleen Hanna, in a summer 1991 Riot Grrrl zine (read in Girls to the Front: the True Story of the Riot Grrrl Revolution by Sara Marcus)
