Richard GreenbergThe world requires me to re-write its wretched dialogue!
About This Quote
The quote, “The world requires me to re-write its wretched dialogue!” is from a speech given by Naomi Wolf, in which she says that women must write a new script for the way they are treated. In this case, the world requires that women re-write the script, or at least put some of us in charge of rewriting it. Women have been shut out of key institutions and institutions have been built on the backs of women and yet we continue to be shut out. The world is requiring us to re-write its wretched dialogue and rewrite it based on what we would like to see and not what is ingrained in society and culture.
