Famous quotes containing the words women, undergo and/or testing:

    It’s only women who are not really quite women at all, frivolous women who have no idea, who neglect repairs.
    Marguerite Duras (b. 1914)

    There are several natural phenomena which I shall have to have explained to me before I can keep on going as a resident member of the human race.

    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)

    No testing has overtaken you that is not common to everyone. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tested beyond your strength, but with the testing he will also provide the way out so that you may be able to endure it.
    Bible: New Testament, 1 Corinthians 10:13.
