Women

A man's brain has a more difficult time shifting from thinking to feeling than a women's brain does.
- Angelis, Barbara De
Women Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Women

1.
Women have got to make the world safe for men since men have made it so darned unsafe for women.
Astor, Lady Nancy

2.
Perhaps women have always been in closer contact with reality than men: it would seem to be the just recompense for being deprived of idealism.
Greer, Germaine

3.
Some women can be fooled all of the time, and all women can be fooled some of the time, but the same woman can't be fooled by the same man in the same way more than half of the time.
Rowland, Helen

4.
There are always women who will take men on their own terms. If I were a man I wouldn't bother to change while there are women like that around.
Oakley, Ann

5.
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

6.
To me the female principle is, or at least historically has been, basically anarchic. It values order without constraint, rule by custom not by force. It has been the male who enforces order, who constructs power structures, who makes, enforces, and breaks laws.
Guin, Ursula K. Le

7.
The fact is, you have fallen lately, Cecily, into a bad habit of thinking for yourself. You should give it up. It is not quite womanly... men don't like it.
Wilde, Oscar

8.
Women lie about their age; men lie about their income.
Feather, William

9.
It is the woman who chooses the man who will choose her.
Geraldy, Paul

10.
The cocks may crow, but it's the hen that lays the egg.
Thatcher, Margaret

11.
A pretty little collection of weaknesses and a terror of spiders are our indispensable stock-in-trade with the men.
Colette, Sidonie Gabrielle

12.
A women knows how to keep quiet when she is in the right, whereas a man, when he is in the right, will keep on talking.
Chazal, Malcolm De

13.
Of all things upon earth that bleed and grow, a herb most bruised is woman.
Euripides

14.
Men get to be a mixture of the charming mannerisms of the women they have known.

15.
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

16.
If a test of civilization be sought, none can be so sure as the condition of that half of society over which the other half has power.
Martineau, Harriet

17.
There is simply no dignified way for a woman to live alone. Oh, she can get along financially perhaps (though not nearly as well as a man), but emotionally she is never left in peace. Her friends, her family, her fellow workers never let her forget that her husbandlessness, her childlessness -- her selfishness, in short -- is a reproach to the American way of life.
Jong, Erica

18.
I consider that women who are authors, lawyers, and politicians are monsters.
Renoir, Pierre Auguste

19.
The incomprehensibleness of women is an old theory, but what is that to the curious wondering observation with which wives, mothers, and sisters watch the other unreasoning animal in those moments when he has snatched the reins out of their hands, and is not to be spoken to! . It is best to let him come to, and feel his own helplessness.
Oliphant, Margaret

20.
Single women have a dreadful propensity for being poor. Which is one very strong argument in favor of matrimony.
Austen, Jane

21.
If civilization had been left in female hands we would still be living in grass huts.
Paglia, Camille

22.
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

23.
Because of our social circumstances, male and female are really two cultures and their life experiences are utterly different.
Millet, Kate

24.
Why are women so much more interesting to men than men are to women?
Woolf, Virginia

25.
Impenetrable in their dissimulation, cruel in their vengeance, tenacious in their purposes, unscrupulous as to their methods, animated by profound and hidden hatred for the tyranny of man -- it is as though there exists among them an ever-present conspiracy toward domination, a sort of alliance like that subsisting among the priests of every country.
Diderot, Denis

26.
The being who, for most men, is the source of the most lively, and even, be it said, to the shame of philosophical delights, the most lasting joys; the being towards or for whom all their efforts tend for whom and by whom fortunes are made and lost; for whom, but especially by whom, artists and poets compose their most delicate jewels; from whom flow the most enervating pleasures and the most enriching sufferings -- woman, in a word, is not, for the artist in general... only the female of the human species. She is rather a divinity, a star.
Baudelaire, Charles

27.
Women sometimes seem to share a quiet, unalterable dogma of persecution that endows even the most sophisticated of them with the inarticulate poignancy of the peasant.

28.
Women must try to do things as men have tried. When they fail their failure must be but a challenge to others.
Earhart, Amelia

29.
What a strange thing man is; and what a stranger thing woman.
Byron, Lord

30.
A woman's whole life is a history of the affections. The heart is her world: it is there her ambition strives for empire; it is there her avarice seeks for hidden treasures. She sends forth her sympathies on adventure; she embarks her whole soul on the traffic of affection; and if shipwrecked, her case is hopeless -- for it is a bankruptcy of the heart.
Irving, Washington

31.
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

32.
But if God had wanted us to think just with our wombs, why did He give us a brain?
Luce, Clare Boothe

33.
The woman who can create her own job is the woman who will win fame and fortune.
Earhart, Amelia

34.
Men are motivated and empowered when they feel needed. Women are motivated and empowered when they feel cherished.
Gray, John

35.
It is not women's fault if we are so tender. It is in the nature of the lives we live. And further, it would be a terrible catastrophe if men had to live men's lives and women's also. Which is precisely what has happened today -- to women.
James, Selma

36.
A man's brain has a more difficult time shifting from thinking to feeling than a women's brain does.
Angelis, Barbara De

37.
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

38.
The woman's vision is deep reaching, the man's far reaching. With the man the world is his heart, with the woman the heart is her world.
Grable, Betty

39.
If all men are born free, why is it that all women are born slaves?
Astell, Mary

40.
Like their personal lives, women's history is fragmented, interrupted; a shadow history of human beings whose existence has been shaped by the efforts and the demands of others.
Janeway, Elizabeth

41.
It requires nothing less than a chivalric feeling to sustain a conversation with a lady.
Thoreau, Henry David

42.
A woman is a branchy tree and man a singing wind; and from her branches carelessly he takes what he can find.
Stephens, James

43.
Men and women, women and men; it will never work.
Jong, Erica

44.
Coming to terms with the rhythms of women's lives means coming to terms with life itself, accepting the imperatives of the body rather than the imperatives of an artificial, man-made, perhaps transcendentally beautiful civilization. Emphasis on the male work-rhythm is an emphasis on infinite possibilities; emphasis on the female rhythms is an emphasis on a defined pattern, on limitation.
Mead, Margaret

45.
The main difference between men and woman is that men are lunatics and woman are idiots.
West, Rebecca

46.
Men who do not make advances to women are apt to become victims to women who make advances to them.
Bagehot, Walter

47.
Woman -- for example, look at her case! She turns tantalizing inviting glances on you. You seize her. No sooner does she feel herself in your grasp than she closes her eyes. It is a sign of her mission, the sign by which she says to man: Blind yourself, for I am blind.
Pirandello, Luigi

48.
The white American man makes the white American woman maybe not superfluous but just a little kind of decoration. Not really important to turning around the wheels of the state. Well the black American woman has never been able to feel that way. No black American man at any time in our history in the United States has been able to feel that he didn't need that black woman right against him, shoulder to shoulder -- in that cotton field, on the auction block, in the ghetto, wherever.
Angelou, Maya

49.
The mouth of a cannon is safer that the mouth of a woman scorned.

50.
When a woman is very, very bad, she is awful, but when a man is correspondingly good, he is weird.
Antrim, Minna
