Give God thy broken heart, He whole will make it: Give woman thy whole heart, and she will break it.
- quote by Edmund Prestwich
God in his harmony has equal ends For cedar that resists and reed that bends; For good it is a woman sometimes rules, Holds in her hand the power, and manners, schools And laws, and mind; succeeding master proud. With gentle voice and smiles she leads the crowd, The somber human troop.
- quote by Victor Hugo
Grace was in all her steps, heaven in her eye, In every gesture dignity and love.
- quote by John Milton
Have you not heard it said full oft, A woman's nay doth stand for nought?
- quote by William Shakespeare
He beheld his own rougher make softened into sweetness, and tempered with smiles; he saw a creature who had, as it were, Heaven's second thought in her formation.
- quote by Richard Steele
He is a fool who thinks by force or skill To turn the current of a woman's will.
- quote by Sir Samuel Tuke
He ploughs the waves, sows the sand, and hopes to gather the wind in a net, who places his hopes on the heart of woman.
- quote by Jacopo Sannazaro
Heart on her lips, and soul within her eyes, Soft as her clime, and sunny as her skies.
- quote by Lord Byron
Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, Nor hell a fury like a woman scorned.

Her air, her manners, all who saw admired; Courteous though coy, and gentle, though retired: The joy of youth and health her eyes display'd, And ease of heart her every look convey'd.
- quote by George Crabbe
