“A woman who can't forgive should never have more than a nodding acquaintance with a man. ”

“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.”

W. Somerset Maugham book The Moon and Sixpence

“The man or woman who doesn't forgive has forgotten the price that Christ paid for them on the Cross.”

John Bevere (1959) American author

“First, I say, that woman in her greatest perfection was made to serve and obey man, not to rule and command him. As St. Paul does reason in these words: "Man is not of the woman, but the woman of the man. And man was not created for the cause of the woman, but the woman for the cause of man; and therefore ought the woman to have a power upon her head" [1 Cor. 11:8-10] (that is, a cover in sign of subjection). Of which words it is plain that the apostle means, that woman in her greatest perfection should have known that man was lord above her; and therefore that she should never have pretended any kind of superiority above him, no more than do the angels above God the Creator, or above Christ their head. [38] So I say, that in her greatest perfection, woman was created to be subject to man.”

John Knox (1514–1572) Scottish clergyman, writer and historian

“A woman is human.

She is not better, wiser, stronger, more intelligent, more creative, or more responsible than a man.

Likewise, she is never less.

Equality is a given.

A woman is human.”

Vera Nazarian (1966) American writer

“You have no right to be jealous of a woman who wants to be more of a woman by watching a man dressed up as a woman.”

Peter Greenaway (1942) British film director

“I never cease to wonder at my luck in having for my sister the woman who, more than any other woman in America, possesses all the qualities of true greatness.”

Lillian Gish (1893–1993) American actress

“A revolutionary woman can't have no reactionary man.”

Assata Shakur (1947) American activist who was a member of the Black Panther Party and Black Liberation Army

“Nothing should more deeply shame the modern student than the recency and inadequacy of his acquaintance with India.”

Will Durant book The Story of Civilization

“Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to min'?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And days o' auld lang syne?”

Robert Burns (1759–1796) Scottish poet and lyricist
