“If there was anything I'd learned, it's that the man never chooses the woman. All he can do is give her an opportunity to choose him.”

“The basic freedom of the world is woman's freedom. A free race cannot be born of slave mothers. A woman enchained cannot choose but give a measure of that bondage to her sons and daughters. No woman can call herself free who does not own and control her body. No woman can call herself free until she can choose consciously whether she will or will not be a mother.”

“Do not choose for your wife any woman you would not choose for a friend if she were a man.”

“Sometimes I think if I had to choose between an ear of corn or making love to a woman, I'd choose the corn.”

“A woman's strength should not be in her role, whatever she chooses to be, but in the power to choose that role.”

“We never choose anything at all. Things happen. Or not.”

“A woman can forgive a man for the harm he does her,” he said, “but she can never forgive him for the sacrifices he makes on her account.”

“Only mankind
Can do the impossible:
He can distinguish,
He chooses and judges,
He can give permanence
To the moment.”

“Never choose anyone as a friend without

understanding

and never lose him/her because of

misunderstanding.”

“The optimist will never say that he's unemployed. But he will claim that he has full freedom to do anything he wants. He can choose whether to make money or waste his VALUABLE time.”
