Famous quotes containing the word women:
“We’re buying this, but why do you sing the same sad songs all women sing?”
—Katharine S. White (1892–1977)
“Certain women should be struck regularly like gongs.”
—Noël Coward (1899–1973)
“The militancy of men, through all the centuries, has drenched the world with blood, and for these deeds of horror and destruction men have been rewarded with monuments, with great songs and epics. The militancy of women has harmed no human life save the lives of those who fought the battle of righteousness. Time alone will reveal what reward will be allotted to women.”
—Emmeline Pankhurst (1858–1928)
