Bernard Shaw
- quote by William Shakespeare
But in some odd nook in Mrs. Todgers's breast, up a great many steps, and in a corner easy to be overlooked, there was a secret door, with "Woman" written on the spring, which, at a touch from Mercy's hand, had flown wide open, and admitted her for shelter.
- quote by Charles Dickens
But she was a soft landscape of mild earth, Where all was harmony, and calm, and quiet, Luxuriant, budding; cheerful without mirth.
- quote by Lord Byron
But woman's grief is like a summer storm, Short as it violent is.
- quote by Joanna Baillie
But, alas! alas! for the woman's fate, Who has from a mob to choose a mate! 'Tis a strange and painful mystery! But the more the eggs the worse the hatch; The more the fish, the worse the catch; The more the sparks the worse the match; Is a fact in woman's history.
- quote by Thomas Hood
Daphne knows, with equal ease, How to vex and how to please; But the folly of her sex Makes her sole delight to vex.
- quote by Jonathan Swift
De wimmin, dey does de talkin' en de flyin', en de mens, dey does de walkin en de pryin', en betwixt en betweenst um, dey ain't much dat don't come out.
- quote by Joel Chandler Harris
Disguise our bondage as we will, 'Tis woman, woman rules us still.
