women

1.

To behold her is an immediate check to loose behavior; to love her is a liberal education.

- Steele, Sir Richard

2.

Women must pay for everything. They do get more glory than men for comparable feats, But, they also get more notoriety when they crash.

- Earhart, Amelia

3.

The great question that has never been answered, and which I have not yet been able to answer, despite my thirty years of research into the feminine soul, is What does a woman want?

- Freud, Sigmund

4.

You've got many refinements. I don't think you need to worry about your failure at long division. I mean, after all, you got through short division, and short division is all that a lady ought to be called on to cope with.

- Williams, Tennessee

5.

Though women are angels, yet wedlock's the devil.

- Byron, Lord

6.

Women are cursed, and men are the proof.

- Rosanne Barr

7.

There are many examples of women that have excelled in learning, and even in war, but this is no reason we should bring em all up to Latin and Greek or else military discipline, instead of needle-work and housewifery.

- Mandeville, Bernard

8.

I am also very proud to be a liberal. Why is that so terrible these days? The liberals were liberators -- they fought slavery, fought for women to have the right to vote, fought against Hitler, Stalin, fought to end segregation, fought to end apartheid. Liberals put an end to child labor and they gave us the five day work week! What's to be ashamed of?

- Streisand, Barbara

That little man in black over there, he says women can't have as much rights as men,'cause Christ wasn't a woman! Where did your Christ come from? From God and a woman! Man had nothing to do with Him.

10.

Women know the way to rear up children (to be just). They know a simple, merry, tender knack of tying sashes, fitting baby-shoes, and stringing pretty words that make no sense. And kissing full sense into empty words.

- Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

11.

I have never seen a man as fond of virtue as of women.

- Confucius

Above all, we must realize that no arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women. It is a weapon our adversaries in today's world do not have.

- Ronald Reagan

13.

In Kyudo philosophy, you don't aim--you become one with the target. Then, in fact, there's nothing to aim at. I find it works well with women, too. Give it a try.

- Martin Sage and Sybil Adelman

14.

Left to itself the masculine imagination has very little appreciation for the here and now; it prefers to dwell on what is absent, on what has been or may be. If men are more punctual than women, it is because they know that, without the external discipline of clock time, they would never get anything done.

- Auden, W. H.

15.

Like many rich men, he thought in anecdotes; like many simple women, she thought in terms of biography.

- Brookner, Anita

16.

A Code of Honor-never approach a friend's girlfriend or wife with mischief as your goal. There are just too many women in the world to justify that sort of dishonorable behavior. Unless she's really attractive.

- Freidmen, Bruce J

17.

At their core, women fear that men will kill them. At their core, men fear that women will laugh at them.

- Gavin de Becker

18.

To be completely woman you need a master, and in him a compass for your life. You need a man you can look up to and respect. If you dethrone him it's no wonder that you are discontented, and discontented women are not loved for long.

- Dietrich, Marlene

19.

Family... the home of all social evil, a charitable institution for comfortable women, an anchorage for house-fathers, and a hell for children.

- Strindberg, J. August

20.

Women are like cars: we all want a Ferrari, sometimes want a pickup truck, and end up with a stationwagon.

- Tim Allen
