What is being called the UN 'gender architecture' is more like a shack. Women need a bigger global house if equality is ever to become a reality.
Charlotte Bunch
When a human being becomes so still that they begin to lose awareness of their gender, and they are simply looking into that abyss where there is no notion of self whatsoever, the world disappears. And that's really the only place to go. It's the only place to remain.
Andrew Cohen

Amartya Sen
Whether born from experience or inherent physiological or cultural differences our gender and national origins may and will make a difference in our judging.
Sonia Sotomayor
With the adoption of the Declaration on the Elimination of Violence against Women, the international community sent out a clear message that gender based violence will not be tolerated.
Jenny Shipley
