Women

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
Women Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Women

1.
What a strange thing man is; and what a stranger thing woman.
Byron, Lord

2.
The strength of women comes from the fact that psychology cannot explain us. Men can be analyzed, women merely adored.
Wilde, Oscar

3.
It requires nothing less than a chivalric feeling to sustain a conversation with a lady.
Thoreau, Henry David

4.
As a woman I have no country. As a woman my country is the whole world.
Woolf, Virginia

5.
Man loves little and often. Woman much and rarely.
Basta

6.
When a woman behaves like a man why doesn't she behave like a nice man?
Evans, Dame Edith

7.
The nearer society approaches to divine order, the less separation will there be in the characters, duties, and pursuits of men and women. Women will not become less gentle and graceful, but men will become more so. Women will not neglect the care and education of their children, but men will find themselves ennobled and refined by sharing those duties with them; and will receive, in return, co-operation and sympathy in the discharge of various other duties, now deemed inappropriate to women. The more women become rational companions, partners in business and in thought, as well as in affection and amusement, the more highly will men appreciate home.
Child, Lydia M.

8.
When you educate a man you educate an individual; when you educate a woman you educate a whole family.
Maciver, Robert M.

9.
If man knew how women pass the time when they are alone, they'd never marry.
Porter, O. Henry

10.
Give us that grand word woman once again, and let's have done with lady; one's a term full of fine force, strong, beautiful, and firm, fit for the noblest use of tongue or pen; and one's a word for lackeys.
Wilcox, Ella Wheeler

11.
Guys are simple... women are not simple and they always assume that men must be just as complicated as they are, only way more mysterious. The whole point is guys are not thinking much. They are just what they appear to be. Tragically.
Barry, Dave

12.
The one woman who never gives herself is your free woman, who is always giving herself.
Lawrence, D. H.

13.
We have now traced the history of women from Paradise to the nineteenth century and have heard nothing through the long roll of the ages but the clank of their fetters.
Wilde, Lady Jane

14.
Femininity appears to be one of those pivotal qualities that is so important no one can define it.
Bird, Caroline

15.
Women lie about their age; men lie about their income.
Feather, William

16.
There is a growing strength in women, but it's in the forehead, not in the forearm.
Sills, Beverly

17.
The great majority of men, especially in France, both desire and possess a fashionable woman, much in the way one might own a fine horse -- as a luxury befitting a young man.
Stendhal, Henri B.

18.
The female of the genus homo is economically dependent on the male. He is her food supply.
Gillman, Charlotte P.

19.
Even the wisest men make fools of themselves about women, and even the most foolish women are wise about men.
Reik, Theodor

20.
The man of the house can destroy the pleasure of the household, but he cannot make it. That rests with the woman, and it is her greatest privilege.
Helps, Sir Arthur

21.
Man forgives women anything save the wit to outwit him.
Antrim, Minna

22.
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

23.
Woman does not forget she needs the fecundator, she does not forget that everything that is born of her is planted in her.
Nin, Anais

24.
I buy women shoes and they use them to walk away from me.
Rooney, Mickey

25.
If women were humbler, men would be more honest.
Vanbrugh, Sir John

26.
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

27.
Men get to be a mixture of the charming mannerisms of the women they have known.

28.
Eve is a twofold mystery.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

29.
The angel of the Family is Woman. Mother, wife, or sister, Woman is the caress of life, the soothing sweetness of affection shed over its toils, a reflection for the individual of the loving providence which watches over Humanity. In her there is treasure enough of consoling tenderness to allay every pain. Moreover for every one of us she is the initiator of the future. The mother's first kiss teaches the child love; the first holy kiss of the woman he loves teaches man hope and faith in life; and love and faith create a desire for perfection and the power of reaching towards it step by step; create the future, in short, of which the living symbol is the child, link between us and the generations to come. Through her the Family, with its divine mystery of reproduction, points to Eternity.
Mazzini, Giuseppe

30.
There is no kind of harassment that a man may not inflict on a woman with impunity in civilized societies.
Diderot, Denis

31.
Between men and women there is no friendship possible. There is passion, enmity, worship, love, but no friendship.
Wilde, Oscar

32.
The great living experience for every man is his adventure into the woman. The man embraces in the woman all that is not himself, and from that one resultant, from that embrace, comes every new action.
Lawrence, D. H.

33.
A woman might claim to retain some of the child's faculties, although very limited and defused, simply because she has not been encouraged to learn methods of thought and develop a disciplined mind. As long as education remains largely induction ignorance will retain these advantages over learning and it is time that women impudently put them to work.
Greer, Germaine

34.
Women have served all these centuries as looking-glasses possessing the magic and delicious power of reflecting the figure of man at twice its natural size.
Woolf, Virginia

35.
Just as humans have a prior right to existence over dogs by virtue of being more highly evolved and having a superior consciousness, so women have a prior right to existence over men. The elimination of any male is, therefore, a righteous and good act, an act highly beneficial to women as well as an act of mercy.
Solanis, Valerie

36.
Men have a much better time of it than women. For one thing, they marry later, for another thing, they die earlier.
Mencken, H. L.

37.
The feminine mystique has succeeded in burying millions of American women alive.
Friedan, Betty

38.
Whatever they may be in public life, whatever their relations with men, in their relations with women, all men are rapists and that's all they are. They rape us with their eyes, their laws, their codes.
French, Marilyn

39.
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

40.
Woman is not born: she is made. In the making, her humanity is destroyed. She becomes symbol of this, symbol of that: mother of the earth, slut of the universe; but she never becomes herself because it is forbidden for her to do so.
Dworkin, Andrea

41.
Girls we love for what they are; men for what they promise to be.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

42.
Woman! The peg on which the wit hangs his jest, the preacher his text, the cynic his grouch, and the sinner his justification!
Rowland, Helen

43.
The superiority of one man's opinion over another's is never so great as when the opinion is about a woman.
James, Henry

44.
For a man to strike any women is most brutal, and I, as well as everyone else, think this far worse than any attempt to shoot, which, wicked as it is, is at least more comprehensible and more courageous.
Victoria, Queen

45.
To be successful, a woman has to be better at her job than a man.
Meir, Golda

46.
Men greet each other with a sock on the arm, women with a hug, and the hug wears better in the long run.
Hoagland, Edward

47.
The woman who can create her own job is the woman who will win fame and fortune.
Earhart, Amelia

48.
I consider that women who are authors, lawyers, and politicians are monsters.
Renoir, Pierre Auguste

49.
The truth is, I often like women. I like their unconventionality. I like their completeness. I like their anonymity.
Woolf, Virginia

50.
The cruelest thing a man can do to a woman is to portray her as perfection.
Lawrence, D. H.
