1. Oprah Winfrey at the 2018 Golden Globe

“I want all the girls watching here now to know that a new day is on the horizon. And that when this new day finally comes, it will be because of many magnificent women struggling hard to make sure that they become the leaders that lead us to a time when no one ever has to say 'Me too' again. ”

The #MeToo movement has brought reports of thousands of abused and harassed women around the world, gaining traction from testimonials from movie, television and music stars.

2. Viola Davis at the 2016 Emmy Awards

“'In my mind, I see a line. And over that line I see green fields, beautiful flowers and beautiful white women with their arms outstretched over that line. But I can't get there, I don't know why. I can't get over this line. ' That was Harriet Tubman in the 1800s. And let me say one thing: the only thing that separates women of color from anyone else is opportunity. You can't win an Emmy for roles that just don't exist. ”

3. Angelina Jolie at the UN in 2016

“[There are children] who know no other reality but such a hostile, deserted, and barbed wire environment. My own children are these ages and, like any mother, I can't imagine what it would be like to have them go through a situation like this. It breaks my heart. ”

4. Malala Yousafzai at the UN in 2013

“ The wise saying 'The pen is mightier than the sword' is true. Extremists are afraid of books and pens. The power of education scares them and they are afraid of women. The power of women's voice terrifies them. That is why they attack schools every day: because they are afraid of the change, the equality that we will bring to our society. ”

5. Frances McDormand at the Oscar 2018

“We all have stories to tell and projects to fund. Don't talk to us about it at tonight's parties. Invite us to your offices in a few days or you can come to ours - whichever is better - and we'll tell you all about them. I have three words to leave with you tonight, ladies and gentlemen: inclusion clause. ”
