"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."
Author:     Andrea Dworkin Category:     Women

"A woman's heart must be of such a size and no larger, else it must be pressed small, like Chinese feet; her happiness is to be made as cakes are, by a fixed receipt."
Author:     George Eliot Category:     Women

"When a woman behaves like a man why doesn't she behave like a nice man?"
Author:     Dame Edith Evans Category:     Women

"They talk about a woman's sphere, as though it had a limit. There's not a place in earth or heaven. There's not a task to mankind given... without a woman in it."
Author:     Kate Field Category:     Women

"The feminine mystique has succeeded in burying millions of American women alive."
Author:     Betty Friedan Category:     Women

"The Woman-Soul leadeth us upward and on!"
Author:     Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Category:     Women

"Older women can afford to agree that femininity is a charade, a matter of colored hair, ecru lace and whalebones, the kind of slap and tat that transvestites are in love with, and no more."
Author:     Germaine Greer Category:     Women

"We are volcanoes. When we women offer our experience as our truth, as human truth, all the maps change. There are new mountains."
Author:     Ursula K. Le Guin Category:     Women

"If it were not somewhat fanciful to suppose that every human excellence is presented, as it were, in one kind of being, we might believe that the whole treasure of morality and order is enshrined in the female character."
Author:     Karl Wilhelm Von Humboldt Category:     Women

"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."
Author:     Emma Jung Category:     Women
