It would not be going too far to assert that ... conflict confronts every woman who ventures upon a career of her own and who is ... unwilling to pay for her daring with the renunciation of her femininity.

Womanhood is the great fact in her life; wifehood and motherhood are but incidental relations.

Today a woman without a man is like a fish without a bicycle.

These impossible women! How they do get around us! The poet was right: can't live with them, or without them.

The women of today are in a fair way to dethrone the myth of femininity; they are beginning to affirm their independence in concrete ways; but they do not easily succeed in living completely the life of a human being.

Woman is determined not by her hormones or by mysterious instincts, but by the manner in which her body and her relation to the world are modified through the action of others than herself.

A woman is a vehicle of life. Life has overtaken her. Woman is what it is all about-the giving of birth and the giving of nourishment.

Women, like flames, have a destroying power, Ne'er to be quenched till they themselves devour.

A woman's desire for revenge outlasts all her other emotions.

A woman never sees what we do for her, she only sees what we don't do.
