Margaret Atwood
Quotations

The beginning of Canadian cultural nationalism was not “Am I really that oppressed?” but “Am I really that boring?”

If a stranger taps you on the ass and says, “How’s the little lady today!” you will probably cringe. But if he’s an American, he’s only being friendly.

Men are not to be told anything they might find too painful; the secret depths of human nature, the sordid physicalities, might overwhelm or damage them. For instance, men often faint at the sight of their own blood, to which they are not accustomed. For this reason you should never stand behind one in the line at the Red Cross donor clinic.

Popular art is the dream of society; it does not examine itself.

I’ve never understood why people consider youth a time of freedom and joy. It’s probably because they have forgotten their own.
