Women

Men are the managers of the affairs of women for that God has preferred in bounty one of them over another, and for that they have expended of their property. Righteous women are therefore obedient, guarding the secret for God's guarding. And those you fear may be rebellious admonish; banish them to their couches, and beat them.
- Qur'an
Women Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Women

1.
Much can be inferred about a man from his mistress: in her one beholds his weaknesses and his dreams.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.

2.
If civilization had been left in female hands we would still be living in grass huts.
Paglia, Camille

3.
A woman should say: Have I made him happy? Is he satisfied? Does he love me more than he loved me before? Is he likely to go to bed with another woman? If he does, then it's the wife's fault because she is not trying to make him happy.
Cartland, Barbara

4.
Woman is the Nigger of the World.
Lennon, John

5.
When women love us, they forgive us everything, even our crimes; when they do not love us, they give us credit for nothing, not even out virtues.
Balzac, Honore De

6.
Girls who put out are tramps. Girls who don't are ladies. This is, however, a rather archaic usage of the word. Should one of you boys happen upon a girl who doesn't put out, do not jump to the conclusion that you have found a lady. What you have probably found is a lesbian.
Lebowitz, Fran

7.
I don't know why women want any of the things men have when one the things that women have is men.
Chanel, Coco

8.
It's only women who are not really quite women at all, frivolous women who have no idea, who neglect repairs.
Duras, Marguerite

9.
Sometimes I think that the biggest difference between men and women is that more men need to seek out some terrible lurking thing in existence and hurl themselves upon it. Women know where it lives but they can let it alone.
Hoban, Russell

10.
Femininity appears to be one of those pivotal qualities that is so important no one can define it.
Bird, Caroline

11.
Women hate everything which strips off the tinsel of sentiment, and they are right, or it would rob them of their weapons.
Byron, Lord

12.
I tell you there isn't a thing under the sun that needs to be done at all, but what a man can do better than a woman, unless it's bearing children, and they do that in a poor make-shift way; it had better ha been left to the men.
Eliot, George

13.
A complete woman is probably not a very admirable creature. She is manipulative, uses other people to get her own way, and works within whatever system she is in.
Brookner, Anita

14.
To look almost pretty is an acquisition of higher delight to a girl who has been looking plain for the first fifteen years of her life than a beauty from her cradle can ever receive.
Austen, Jane

15.
A man's idea in a game of cards is war, cruel, devastating, and pitiless. A lady's idea of it is a combination of larceny, embezzlement and burglary.
Dunne, Finley Peter

16.
A man's women folk, whatever their outward show of respect for his merit and authority, always regard him secretly as an ass, and with something akin to pity. His most gaudy sayings and doings seldom deceive them; they see the actual man within, and know him for a shallow and pathetic fellow. In this fact, perhaps, lies one of the best proofs of feminine intelligence, or, as the common phrase makes it, feminine intuition.
Mencken, H. L.

17.
We all enter the world little plastic beings, with so much natural force, perhaps, but for the rest -- blank; and the world tells us what we are to be, and shapes us by the ends it sets before us. To you it says -- Work; and to us it says -- Seem! To you it says -- As you approximate to man's highest ideal of God, as your arm is strong and your knowledge great, and the power to labor is with you, so you shall gain all that human heart desires. To us it says -- Strength shall not help you, nor knowledge, nor labor. You shall gain what men gain, but by other means. And so the world makes men and women.
Schreiner, Olive

18.
The especial genius of women I believe to be electrical in movement, intuitive in function, spiritual in tendency.
Fuller, Margaret

19.
No woman is really an insider in the institutions fathered by masculine consciousness. When we allow ourselves to believe we are, we lose touch with parts of ourselves defined as unacceptable by that consciousness; with the vital toughness and visionary strength of the angry grandmothers, the fierce market women of the Ibo's Women's War, the marriage-resisting women silk workers of pre-Revolutionary China, the millions of widows, midwives, and the women healers tortured and burned as witches for three centuries in Europe.
Rich, Adrienne

20.
Once a man is on hand, a woman tends to stop believing in her own beliefs.
Dowling, Colette

21.
I do not know if you remember the tale of the girl who saves the ship under mutiny by sitting on the powder barrel with her lighted torch and all the time knowing that it is empty? This has seemed to me a charming image of the women of my time. There they were, keeping the world in order by sitting on the mystery of life, and knowing themselves that there was no mystery.
Dinesen, Isak

22.
Women of quality are so civil, you can hardly distinguish love from good breeding.
Wycherley, William

23.
The real thinking of woman is pre-eminently practical and applied. It is something we describe as sound common sense, and is usually directed to what is close at hand and personal. In general, it can be said that feminine mentality manifests an undeveloped, childlike, or primitive character; instead of the thirst for knowledge, curiosity; instead of judgment, prejudice; instead of thinking, imagination or dreaming; instead of will, wishing. Where a man takes up objective problems, a woman contents herself with solving riddles; where he battles for knowledge and understanding, she contents herself with faith or superstition, or else she makes assumptions.
Jung, Emma

24.
You may be a princess or the richest woman in the world, but you cannot be more than a lady.
Churchill, Jennie Jerome

25.
Women serve but to keep a man from better company.
Wycherley, William

26.
Growing up female in America. What a liability! You grew up with your ears full of cosmetic ads, love songs, advice columns, whoreoscopes, Hollywood gossip, and moral dilemmas on the level of TV soap operas. What litanies the advertisers of the good life chanted at you! What curious catechisms!
Jong, Erica

27.
The mouth of a cannon is safer that the mouth of a woman scorned.

28.
Women are considered deep -- why? Because one can never discover any bottom to them. Women are not even shallow.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

29.
A Woman is home caring for her children! even if she can't. Trapped in this well-built trap, A Woman blames her mother for luring her into it, while ensuring that her own daughter never gets out; she recoils from the idea of sisterhood and doesn't believe women have friends, because it probably means something unnatural, and anyhow, A Woman is afraid of women. She's a male construct, and she's afraid women will deconstruct her. She's afraid of everything, because she can't change. Thighs forever thin and shining hair and shining teeth and she's my Mom, too, all seven percent of her. And she never grows old.
Guin, Ursula K. Le

30.
A lady is smarter than a gentleman, maybe, she can sew a fine seam, she can have a baby, she can use her intuition instead of her brain, but she can't fold a paper in a crowded train.
Mcginley, Phyllis

31.
The individual woman is required a thousand times a day to choose either to accept her appointed role and thereby rescue her good disposition out of the wreckage of her self-respect, or else follow an independent line of behavior and rescue her self-respect out of the wreckage of her good disposition.
Rankin, Jeannette

32.
Nature makes woman to be won and men to win.
Curtis, George William

33.
A man of sense only trifles with them, plays with them, humors and flatters them, as he does with a sprightly and forward child; but he neither consults them about, nor trusts them with, serious matters.
Chesterfield, Lord

34.
Woman is the future of man. That means that the world which was once formed in man's image will now be transformed to the image of woman. The more technical and mechanical, cold and metallic it becomes, the more it will need the kind of warmth that only the woman can give it. If we want to save the world, we must adapt to the woman, let ourselves be led by the woman, let ourselves be penetrated by the Ewigweiblich, the eternally feminine!
Kundera, Milan

35.
It takes one woman twenty years to make a man of her son -- and another woman twenty minutes to make a fool of him.
Rowland, Helen

36.
A woman who takes things from a man is called a girlfriend, a man who takes things from a woman is called a gigolo.
Stein, Ruthie

37.
The clich? that women, more consistently than men, turn inward for sustenance seems to mean, in practice, that women have richly defined the ways in which imagination creates possibility; possibility that society denies.
Spacks, Patricia Meyer

38.
As a woman I have no country. As a woman my country is the whole world.
Woolf, Virginia

39.
If Miss means respectably unmarried, and Mrs. respectably married, then Ms. means nudge, nudge, wink, wink.
Carter, Angela

40.
The common foible of women who have been handsome is to forget that they are no longer so.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

41.
Men who do not make advances to women are apt to become victims to women who make advances to them.
Bagehot, Walter

42.
A lady is nothing very specific. One man's lady is another man's woman; sometimes, one man's lady is another man's wife. Definitions overlap but they almost never coincide.
Lynes, Russell

43.
Because of our social circumstances, male and female are really two cultures and their life experiences are utterly different.
Millet, Kate

44.
There is no kind of harassment that a man may not inflict on a woman with impunity in civilized societies.
Diderot, Denis

45.
The great and almost only comfort about being a woman is that one can always pretend to be more stupid than one is and no one is surprised.
Stark, Freya

46.
If women are supposed to be less rational and more emotional at the beginning of our menstrual cycle when the female hormone is at its lowest level, then why isn't it logical to say that, in those few days, women behave the most like the way men behave all month long?
Steinem, Gloria

47.
Women like silent men. They think they're listening.
Archard, Marcel

48.
The truth is, I often like women. I like their unconventionality. I like their completeness. I like their anonymity.
Woolf, Virginia

49.
What breadth, what beauty and power of human nature and development there must be in a woman to get over all the palisades, all the fences, within which she is held captive!
Herzen, Alexander

50.
There is a growing strength in women, but it's in the forehead, not in the forearm.
Sills, Beverly
