Every bad ass feminist babe has a pile of inspirational quotes on their phone, Facebook, Twitter, etc. We follow pages that promote women and advocate for equality. It's a part of our social media, and these make up about half of the screenshots on all of our camera rolls.

So, for my article this week to keep you from having to scroll through all of your social media for your next quote heart-throb, I decided to keep things short and simple by giving you a list of a few of my favorite feminist quotes:

1. Anonymous

"We call ships ‘she’. We call our machines 'women’. We compare women to black widows and vipers. And you’re going to tell me it’s not 'lady-like’ to scream, to take up space, to fight and demand respect and do whatever I want. You’ve looked at nuclear bombs and been so in awe that you could only name them after women. Don’t try to down-play my power."

2. Kate Nash

"Feminism is not a dirty word. It does not mean you hate men, it does not mean you hate girls that have nice legs and a tan, and it does not mean you are a bitch or a dyke. It means that you believe in equality."

3. G. D. Anderson

"Feminism isn't about making women stronger. Women are already strong. It's about changing the way the world perceives that strength."

4. Neil Gaiman

"I hope the strong women out there aren't quiet and they don't go away, because when people attack you for speaking, the best way to drive them nuts is to smile and carry on speaking - louder, more wisely, more intensely, more articulately than ever."

5. Anonymous

"To those accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression."

6. Chloe Grace Moretz

"My mom was a single mom, so I've been a feminist since birth. I think feminism is about strong women being who they want to be and fighting for equality on all accounts. It's not about men being demolished to bring women higher up in the world. I think that's incredibly misconstrued."

7. Chris Mc Geown

she was not the canvas,
she was the artist -
the masterpiece
was in her mind,
her hands,
her soul.

8. Taylor Swift

"To say you're not a feminist means that you think men should have more rights and opportunities than women."

9. Sir Patrick Stewart

"The people who could do most to improve the situation of so many women and children is, in fact, men. It's in our hands to stop violence towards women."

10. Caitlin Stasey

"Men threatened by feminism either don't understand it or don't like that they now have to modify their own shitty behavior."

11. Okaysada

"I wonder if women who hate feminism understand that they wouldn't be able to vote or go to school or own property without it. If you're sitting in a classroom talking about hating feminism then the irony is strong there."

12. And my personal favorite...
