"By venerating Her I am able to salute the divinity in all women and myself."--Luisah Teish
"We are at the brink of new age which will be defined by new concepts in science, religion, and the reclamation of the values of the Dark Mother."--Necia Harkless
"In my micro-geography, she is everywhere: in a sweat lodge in Indian Canyon, or in the Guadalupe chapel in San Juan Bautista, in a field of blue corn in Aromas protected with corn dollies, or in the Rodriquez Street Laundry in Watsonville..."--Jennifer Colby
"In bringing memories of Her to the surface, I feel reborn, reconnected to the Earth, reunited with my Great Mother."--Sandy Miranda
"Traveling to lands and sacred sites where evidence of the Goddess is irrefutable gives me a new spark and added hope...Sardinia herself is the Great Mother."--Leslene della Madre
"The more women's voices I heard; the more I came to see the Sacred Feminine as immanent; the more I saw women who seemed to be filled with joy even in the midst of adverse circumstances..."--Deborah Grenn
