~By Twyla Tharp ~
No longer shall I paint interiors with men reading and women knitting. I will paint living people who breathe and feel and suffer and love.
~By Edvard Munch ~
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?
~By Gloria Steinem ~

It has been very erotic and provocative for people to wonder about my feelings for women.
~By Catherine Deneuve ~

~By Terence Fisher ~

~By Ken Follett ~
Women do feel like they're in a box. Society, Hollywood, some men-they want to wrap women up in a neat little package.
~By Sherilyn Fenn ~

~By Debbie Wasserman Schultz ~
There's a lot involved in going to the bathroom for women.
~By Leah Remini ~
I love women, but I feel like you can't trust some of them. Some of them are liars, you know? Like I was in the park and I met this girl, she was cute and she had a dog. And I went up to her, we started talking. She told me her dog's name. Then I said, 'Does he bite?' She said, 'No.' And I said, 'Oh yeah? Then how does he eat?' Liar.
~By Demetri Martin ~

I think most corporate executives are good honorable honest men and women who do good work.
~By Don Nickles ~

~By Olympia Dukakis ~
A growing number of young women who have the freedom to decide have decided that career can wait, and the delicious early years of their children's lives can't.

There needs to be radical development in equality law to create the environment to allow women to stay in work.
~By Ken Livingstone ~
I think the roles in television are better for women right now. At this point, I don't want to continue doing the same things I've been doing in film because it's very limited.
~By Sandra Oh ~
It took so long to make it in America. The year I arrived was a bad year for women singers, the record company told me. So I starved. I lived in a hotel so dreadful I can't even talk about it.
~By Helen Reddy ~
All women do have a different sense of sexuality, or sense of fun, or sense of like what's sexy or cool or tough.
~By Angelina Jolie ~
Something about glamour interested me. All my schoolbooks had drawings of women on terraces with a cocktail and a cigarette.
~By Bill Blass ~
The door might not be opened to a woman again for a long, long time, and I had a kind of duty to other women to walk in and sit down on the chair that was offered, and so establish the right of others long hence and far distant in geography to sit in the high seats.
~By Frances Perkins ~
Some women can't say the word lesbian... even when their mouth is full of one.
~By Kate Clinton ~

~By Clayton Christensen ~
Yesterday morning I amused myself with an exercise of a talent I once possessed, but have so neglected that my performance might almost be called an experiment. I cut out a dress for one of the women.
~By Fanny Kemble ~
The witty woman is a tragic figure in American life. Wit destroys eroticism and eroticism destroys wit, so women must choose between taking lovers and taking no prisoners.
~By Florence King ~
We're not going to pay attention to the silliness and the petty comments. And quite frankly, women have joined me in this effort, and so it's not about appearances. It's about effectiveness.
~By Katherine Harris ~
A great number of the women are victims to falling of the womb and weakness in the spine; but these are necessary results of their laborious existence, and do not belong either to climate or constitution.
~By Fanny Kemble ~
Stupid as a man, say the women: cowardly as a woman, say the men. Stupidity in a woman is unwomanly.
~By Friedrich Nietzsche ~
There's a side of me that dislikes feminism. I think we surrendered something and women were unable to reveal any kind of vulnerability.
~By Rachel Hunter ~
Women are the victims of this patriarchal culture, but they are also its carriers. Let us keep in mind that every oppressive man was raised in the confines of his mother's home.
~By Shirin Ebadi ~
There is one thing women can never take away from men. We die sooner.
~By P. J. O'Rourke ~
In junior high, I sang in madrigals, men's' and women's' choir. I played piano too, but then I got out of it.
~By Travis Barker ~
If God had not intended that Women shou'd use their Reason, He wou'd not have given them any, 'for He does nothing in vain.'

~By Camille Paglia ~
I get really upset seeing my friends who are mums crying because they feel like they're not good enough. Clever, confident, kind young women all going, 'I'm ruining my child's life.'
~By Daisy Donovan ~

I know what the attitudes of the readers are: These are guys who love women and respect women.
~By Christie Hefner ~
What we need is more women writers, writing for older women. There are some actresses who have production companies and create their own material, and I truly admire that.
~By Kathleen Turner ~
While gossip among women is universally ridiculed as low and trivial, gossip among men, especially if it is about women, is called theory, or idea, or fact.
~By Andrea Dworkin ~
Men are often a lot less vindictive than women are, because we are rejected constantly every day.
~By Warren Farrell ~
I always want to write erotic music... Not only about the love between men and women, but in a much more universal sense - about the sensuality of the mechanism of the universe... about life.
~By Toru Takemitsu ~
They say I can open movies, and that's nice in that it puts into people's minds that women can do it. It's not just Kevin Costner, not just Arnold Schwarzenegger. Not just the guys.
~By Julia Roberts ~

~By Ralph Lauren ~
Movies are nice, but there are very few roles for women and most of them are sluts or something.
~By Victoria Jackson ~

~By Marilyn French ~
If I became a philosopher, if I have so keenly sought this fame for which I'm still waiting, it's all been to seduce women basically.
~By Jean-Paul Sartre ~
You think intercourse is a private act; it's not, it's a social act. Men are sexually predatory in life; and women are sexually manipulative. When two individuals come together and leave their gender outside the bedroom door, then they make love.
~By Andrea Dworkin ~
It is our duty as men and women to proceed as though the limits of our abilities do not exist.
~By Pierre Teilhard de Chardin ~
I avoid crazy women.
~By Jeremy London ~
Women tend to have recognition and peer group support - recognition from friends and family that this has to be a big issue in their lives. They're more comfortable expressing the need for support and receiving it.

~By Reynolds Price ~
I'll always prefer to play with women and hang out with women, and I'll always be a feminist.
~By Courtney Love ~

~By Daphne du Maurier ~
When I was a young man, I had a mentor on women and he said when you meet a woman that you think you like, don't ask her for a drink. Take her out for a bowl of soup. Because a woman who can enjoy a bowl of soup is bound to be more interesting.
~By Art Cooper ~
Once women are not excluded, I don't think any of us will give a damn what pronouns are used. That wasn't the point.
~By Holly Near ~

~By Charlotte Bunch ~
Women are wiser than men because they know less and understand more.

~By Mary Roberts Rinehart ~
I became obsessed with all these women who die never feeling they did anything extraordinary with their lives.
~By Salma Hayek ~

~By George Eliot ~
The most mediocre of males feels himself a demigod as compared with women.
~By Simone de Beauvoir ~

A family is a unit composed not only of children but of men, women, an occasional animal, and the common cold.
~By Ogden Nash ~

~By Camille Paglia ~
Seeing their children touched and seared and wounded by race prejudice is one of the heaviest crosses which colored women have to bear.
~By Mary Church Terrell ~

~By Eugenie Clark ~
For this is the journey that men and women make, to find themselves. If they fail in this, it doesn't matter much else what they find.
~By James A. Michener ~
I liked the fact that Lois was one person with Clark and another with Superman. I think that, as women, we do that a lot when we fall in love.
~By Margot Kidder ~
When women kiss it always reminds one of prize fighters shaking hands.
~By H. L. Mencken ~

Well, I enjoy sharing in the dangers that we ask our men and women in uniform to share in almost every day.

~By Mark Pryor ~
Women and minorities have excelled beautifully in comedy, but very few women are the lead in a drama.
~By Sharon Gless ~

~By Tobey Maguire ~
I talked to women who lived there, to get their speech patterns and outlook on life - and how narrow that is.
~By Ellen Burstyn ~
I really enjoy having sex, and that's offensive to some people. Women are the quickest to call other women sluts, which is sad. I haven't met a lot of men who've said, "You like having sex? What a dirty whore you are!". That's because they wish their wives or girlfriends would have more sex with them.
~By Megan Fox ~
Men are allowed to get older and women are not.
~By Shirley Knight ~
Basically, women have to prove they are strong at all times. And then when they go on the attack, they have to not appear mean because those women often get the label of being catty.
~By Julie Nixon Eisenhower ~
We women must listen to our inner voice. It is easier for women to do this as they are not afraid to say what they feel.

~By Gina Barreca ~
If we are to perpetuate the state, we must not only produce citizens, but good citizens - men and women of sound bodies, clear minds and clean souls.
~By Arthur Capper ~
With the hugely talented women I've worked with or observed, it's not a question about temperament or ego; it's a question about getting it right. If they've got a reputation for being difficult it's usually because they just don't suffer fools.
~By Glenn Close ~
Cinema has only been around for about 100 years. Has all of the world's violence towards women taken place only within the past 100 years?
~By Richard King ~
Men are not the enemy, but the fellow victims. The real enemy is women's denigration of themselves.
~By Betty Friedan ~
