Quotes About Woman

Boxing? She's like a woman. If you've never wooed her, never won her, you always look back wondering what would have happened had you had her. If you caught her and had a long relationship, you don't really look back. Do I miss her? No, because I've had her, I've moved on.

'The Terminator' is grounded in so much realism. It's again a story that centers around a woman that isn't a 'woman's picture' necessarily. I found it really thrilling, both 'Terminator 1' and '2.' When you watch it it's such fine storytelling.

~ Alec Baldwin
There is nothing so attractive in a woman as a mind thirsty after knowledge and capable of receiving it.

One of the marks of a godly woman is that she takes responsibility for her soul's need for joy and delight. A woman is a conductor, who leads the orchestra of her surroundings in the songs and music of her life. God is a God of creativity and dimension, and so He is pleased when we we co-create beauty in our own realm, through the power of His Spirit. It was a profound realization when I understood that I could become an artist with my very life.
~ Sally Clarkson
we decided that if a woman truly understands how deeply she is loved, she is free to grow into the potential loveliness that God created her to have.

~ Samuel Pepys
The Family/Sygn conflict is in the process of creating a schism throughout the entire galaxy, concerning just what exactly a woman is . And it may mean that instead of one universe with six thousand worlds in it, we will have a universe with one group of some thousands of worlds and another group of some thousands of others, and no connection between the two save memories of murder, starvation, and violence. And in a situation like that, no, you do not just simply decide to up and change sides!
~ Samuel R. Delany
