Women Quotes

"God for men—religions for women," he muttered sometimes. ~ Nostromo by Joseph Conrad "Heav'n has no Rage, like Love to Hatred turn'd, Nor Hell a Fury, like a Woman scorn'd." ~ The Mourning Bride by William Congreve "Women are meant to be loved, not to be understood." ~ The Sphinx Without a Secret by Oscar Wilde "I have seen something of this world," she said over the crowded trays, "and there are but two sorts of women in it - those who take the strength out of a man and those who put it back. Once I was that one, and now I am this." ~ Kim by Rudyard Kipling "Ah! the strength of women comes from the fact that psychology cannot explain us. Men can be analysed, women . . . merely adored." ~ An Ideal Husband by Oscar Wilde "Men always want to be a woman's first love. That is their clumsy vanity. We women have a more subtle instinct about things. What we like is to be a man's last romance." ~ A Woman of No Importance by Oscar Wilde "Every woman is a rebel, and usually in wild revolt against herself." ~ A Woman of No Importance by Oscar Wilde "One should never trust a woman who tells one her real age. A woman who would tell one that, would tell one anything." ~ A Woman of No Importance by Oscar Wilde It was the women's tribute to the war. It taxes both alike, and takes the blood of the men, and the tears of the women. ~ Vanity Fair by William Makepeace Thackeray Oh, those women! They nurse and cuddle their presentiments, and make darlings of their ugliest thoughts. ~ Vanity Fair by William Makepeace Thackeray
