Human Female

Famous quotes containing the words human and/or female:

“I do not believe there are eight hundred human beings on the globe.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“I am obnoxious to each carping tongue
Who says my hand a needle better fits,
A poet’s pen, all scorn, I should thus wrong;
For such despite they cast on female wits:
If what I do prove well, it won’t advance,
They’ll say it’s stolen, or else it was by chance.”
—Anne Bradstreet (c. 1612–1672)
