When women are the advisers,the lords of creation don't
take the advice till they have persuaded themselves that
it is just what they intended to do.Then they act upon
it,and,if it succeeds,they give the weaker vessel half
the credit of it.If it fails,they generously give her the whole.
Louisa May Alcott,Learning To Forget
I am no bird; and no net ensnares me:I am a free human
being with an independent will.
Charlotte Brontë
There are only three things to be done with a woman.
You can love her,suffer for her,or turn her into literature.
Henry Miller
Being a woman is a terribly difficult task,since it
consists principally in dealing with men.
Joseph Conrad
A lady's imagination is very rapid;it jumps from
admiration to love,from love to matrimony in a moment.
Jane Austen,Pride and Prejudice
I hate to hear you talk about all women as if they
were fine ladies instead of rational creatures.
None of us want to be in calm waters all our lives.
Jane Austen, Persuasion
Lock up your libraries if you like;
but there is no gate,no lock,no bolt that you can
set upon the freedom of my mind.
Virginia Woolf,A Room of One's Own
The most beautiful makeup of a woman is passion.
But cosmetics are easier to buy.
Yves Saint-Laurent
All the reasonings of men are not worth one sentiment of women.
Voltaire
