Female Deity

Famous quotes containing the words female and/or deity:

    “I seemed intent on making it as difficult for myself as possible to pursue my “male” career goal.

    —Margaret S. Mahler (1897–1985)

    “Man disavows, the Deity disowns me.
    Hell might afford my miseries a shelter;

    Bolted against me.”
