Nawal El Saadawi Thinking Quotations

Many people come here and they think my apartment is a poor relative to my name. But you cannot be radical and have money, it’s impossible.

Interviewer: What would you say to a woman in this country who assumes she is no longer oppressed, who believes women's liberation has been achieved? el Saadawi: Well I would think she is blind. Like many people who are blind to gender problems, to class problems, to international problems. She's blind to what's happening to her.
