Women Are Quotes (page 40)

The woman who is not pursued sets up the doctrine that pursuit is offensive to her sex, and wants to make it a felony. No genuinely attractive woman has any such desire. She likes masculine admiration, however violently expressed, and is quite able to take care of herself. More, she is well aware that very few men are bold enough to offer it without a plain invitation, and this awareness makes her extremely cynical of all women who complain of being harassed, beset, storied, and seduced. All... H. L. Mencken
To my taste, the men in Rome are ridiculously, hurtfully, stupidly beautiful. More beautiful even than Roman women, to be honest. Italian men are beautiful in the same way as French women, which is to say-- no detail spared in the quest for perfection. They’re like show poodles. Sometimes they look so good I want to applaud. Elizabeth Gilbert
This is what I tell young women who ask me for career advice. People are going to try to trick you. To make you feel that you are in competition with one another. "You're up for a promotion. If they go for a woman, it'll be between you and Barbara." Don't be fooled. You're not in competition with other women. You're in competition with everyone. Tina Fey
If art is not to be life-enhancing, what is it to be? Half the world is feminine--why is there resentment at a female-oriented art? Nobody asks The Tale of Genji to be masculine! Women certainly learn a lot from books oriented toward a masculine world. Why is not the reverse also true? Or are men really so afraid of women's creativity (because they are not themselves at the center of creation, cannot bear children) that a woman writer of genius evokes murderous rage, must be brushed aside... May Sarton
Andrew Greeley quote: "The Catholic men are more upset about women not being able to..."
The Catholic men are more upset about women not being able to be priests than are Catholic women. Andrew Greeley
Fully 57 percent of American college students are women. Life insurance companies sell more policies to women than to men. As women continue to draw on experience and education, they're accelerating their numbers in upper management, too. Suzanne Fields
All women's issues are to some degree men's issues and all men's issues are to some degree women's issues because when either sex wins unilaterally both sexes lose. Warren Farrell
Nora Ephron quote: "I try to write parts for women that are as complicated and..."
I try to write parts for women that are as complicated and interesting as women actually are. Nora Ephron
Marguerite Duras quote: "It's only women who are not really quite women at all,..."
It's only women who are not really quite women at all, frivolous women who have no idea, who neglect repairs. Marguerite Duras
So I constantly play women who are damaged and out of touch, who are seeking without knowing, or knowing without the skills to transform their lives. But then, that's really the fate of many women today. Olympia Dukakis
Like most women, I hate when a guy tries to pick me up by saying, You are the hottest girl I've ever seen. It's totally unrealistic. There are beautiful women everywhere. Karen McDougal
There are all these scripts where the women, if they're working, are prostitutes and lawyers with an angry streak who'll kill you. It's a reaction to women leaving their men and men being angry about it and saying it on some subconscious level. Parker Posey
With women and women, I think there's an understanding. Nobody knows what a woman feels or experiences but another woman. We are the nurturers, and there are times when we need to be nurtured. Dana Plato
Virginia Woolf quote: "Why are women... so much more interesting to men than men are..."
Why are women... so much more interesting to men than men are to women? Virginia Woolf
Christie Hefner quote: "I know what the attitudes of the readers are: These are guys..."
I know what the attitudes of the readers are: These are guys who love women and respect women. Christie Hefner
