Marriage for a woman at least hampers the two things that made life to me glorious - friendship and learning.

One sure way to lose another woman's friendship is to try to improve her flower arrangements.

Meg Ryan is a beautiful and courageous woman. I grieve the loss of her companionship but I've not lost the friendship. We talk all the time and that was what our connection was about. She has a wonderful mind and we just like a chat.

My inspiration are the woman friendship and loneliness.

Love between man and man is impossible because there must not be sexual intercourse and friendship between man and woman is impossible because there must be sexual intercourse.

A woman may very well form a friendship with a man but for this to endure it must be assisted by a little physical antipathy.

She is a friend of mind. She gather me man. The pieces I am she gather them and give them back to me in all the right order. It's good you know when you got a woman who is a friend of your mind.

But I do believe that a woman's truest place is in a home with a husband and with children and with large freedom pecuniary freedom personal freedom and the right to vote.

I wasn't a woman who stayed tiny like I thought I would. I definitely gave myself the freedom to eat what I wanted.

Back then I didn't think a woman like that or a relationship like that could exist with complete freedom and no jealousy or possessiveness. I thought it sounded too good to be true and I was certainly convinced it wasn't the life for me!

It is capitalist America that produced the modern independent woman. Never in history have women had more freedom of choice in regard to dress behavior career and sexual orientation.

Once a woman has forgiven her man she must not reheat his sins for breakfast.

We lived in a one-bedroom apartment in Northwest D.C. I was essentially raised by a Panamanian man and a Jamaican woman. That's why I have such a fascination with Jamaican food.

People always comment about my clothes. They don't think a fashionable woman can love food and be knowledgeable and actually cook.

Ever since Eve started it all by offering Adam the apple woman's punishment has been to supply a man with food then suffer the consequences when it disagrees with him.

I concentrate on exercises from the waist down since that is the laziest part of a woman's body.

Clearly society has a tremendous stake in insisting on a woman's natural fitness for the career of mother: the alternatives are all too expensive.

The confidence is really driven by the woman - whether she can have the confidence that there will be enough earning or income to finance all the domestic spending - but also by the middle-income class which for many Asian countries has become the growth power for the economy.

People just want to hear some common sense... and I bring to bear the experience in local government and state government and national government - I was the first woman in history on the Senate Finance Committee - not to mention the diplomatic international experience.

I talk to women's groups all over the country and see women struggling with this. The fear of not being accepted of being different of not having a man all make it hard for a woman to do what she really believes is right for her.

You always have this fear in a movie of just being somebody's woman.

The Feminist Me says that a woman's right to her own body should be inviolate at all times free from fear of peeping paps.

Almost all the ideas we have about being a man or being a woman are so burdened with pain anxiety fear and self-doubt. For many of us the confusion around this question is excruciating.

In itself homosexuality is as limiting as heterosexuality: the ideal should be to be capable of loving a woman or a man either a human being without feeling fear restraint or obligation.
