Gloria Allred

There are some people who still feel threatened by strong women. That's their problem. It's not mine.

It is very frightening to feel alone when you are standing against a rich and powerful person and all his attendant helpers.

I have two grandchildren.

I think there should be better child support laws to make it easier for those single moms to support their children so they don't have to go on welfare.

I have known some wonderful men.

There are endless new variations on how to hurt a woman physically, emotionally, financially, and socially.

Well, let me just say - I mean, I'm not a person who's going to vote for any of the potential Republican nominees for the presidency of the United States.

Women will no longer be silent when they suffer injustices against them.

I'm not an elected official who puts a finger in the wind to see what the majority thinks; I represent women, whether they're popular or not.

Male privilege and entitlement are dying a very painful death; no one gives up power without a struggle.

When I graduated from the University of Pennsylvania I had a baby in one arm, a diploma in the other and I didn't know where I was going in life.

The more I know about men the more I like dogs.

I could have had someone else take care of my child but I did it because that was my moral obligation and also it was a joy and I felt it was in the best interests of the child.

I have represented people in book deals.

Eventually I figured out there was something systematic in the way women are treated.

When youre fighting for civil rights its sometimes two steps forward and one step back. Civil rights are an evolution and you have to bring people along.

I do believe that, under the law, under the Constitution of the United States, and under our public policy, that women deserve and should have a right to enjoy equal employment opportunity.

Male privilege and entitlement are dying a very painful death no one gives up power without a struggle.

I'm entitled to collect my fair share of community property without being called names.

People who are pierced should not be snickered at, should not become the object of ridicule, should not be singled out for special and uneven and unequal treatment. They should be respected just like everybody else.

Because of my life experiences, I understand that I have an opportunity to help other women. I have the desire and the ability.

It's not my fault if the media and the public are more interested in Tiger Woods than in women farm workers.

I'm not interested in dating. I like being with my own best friend, me. Certain women, particularly older women, cannot believe I like going to a social event by myself. But I do.

I'm a civil rights attorney. I'm a victim rights attorney.

I was a single mother when my child was little.

As my father would have said, I went through the college of hard knocks.

Fighting injustice keeps you young.

Well, I like empowering my clients.
