My observation is that women are merely waiting for their husbands to assume leadership.

Maybe if everybody in leadership was a woman you might not get into the conflicts in the first place. But if you watch the women who have made it to the top they haven't exactly been non-aggressive - including me.

But I do not believe that the world would be entirely different if there were more women leaders. Maybe if everybody in leadership was a woman you might not get into the conflicts in the first place. But if you watch the women who have made it to the top they haven't exactly been non-aggressive - including me.

Henceforth the leaves of the tree of knowledge were for women and for the healing of the nations.

It's hard for women to talk about these things and for the doctors to really talk about it too and to even have the knowledge of what's going on. That's why I'm doing this and urging women to speak out and talk to their doctors frankly.

English girls' schools today providing the higher education are so far as my knowledge goes worthily representative of that astonishing rise in the intellectual standards of women which has taken place in the last half-century.

I'm one of those women who likes to chat and share knowledge and pass it around.

My advice to women in general: Even if you're doing a nine-to-five job treat yourself like a boss. Not arrogant but be sure of what you want - and don't allow people to run anything for you without your knowledge.

Just like I find men who talk sports who don't really know sports annoying I think men might find women who don't really have a true passion and knowledge of sports maybe not so attractive.

There is still the feeling that women's writing is a lesser class of writing that what goes on in the nursery or the bedroom is not as important as what goes on in the battlefield that what women know about is a less category of knowledge.

How can smart women be so stupid about men sometimes? Lack of knowledge. It's what men have kept secret for so long.

I have experienced jealousy possessiveness verbal abuse and violence from men but I have also experienced jealousy possessiveness verbal abuse and violence from women usually when I failed to respond to their advances.

I am drawn to women who are independent and creative which is problematic because it's a struggle a competition of careers. There's jealousy.

Our men and women in uniform deserve the best intelligence possible to help them protect America.

When I came to the CIA in the mid-'90s our graduating class of case officers was unbelievably low. Now after years of rebuilding our training programs and putting our best efforts to recruit the most talented men and women we are graduating more clandestine officers than at any time in the history of the Central Intelligence Agency.

I sought Ben Affleck because I needed an everyman for this role. Ben appeals to men and women. He gives you a sense of intelligence the notion of a guy who can think on his feet.

Some of the best fan mail I get are from our men and women in the military and intelligence communities. They say 'Boy you do your homework this is exactly how we're doing it.'

Sensible and responsible women do not want to vote. The relative positions to be assumed by man and woman in the working out of our civilization were assigned long ago by a higher intelligence than ours.

It was just very interesting to me that certain types of women inspire people's imagination and all of them were very difficult women.

Let us leave pretty women to men devoid of imagination.

I think films about men are often about characters who don't want to express their feelings. You're supposed to kind of admire them for not expressing their feelings. And I feel that's a bit dull. Women's stories often have stronger emotional content which I enjoy doing. What I really love doing is mixing that with humor.

There's something about Southern women that is so unique yet so universal. Strong southern women are allowed to be soft and feminine and have a sense of humor. But what I love about Southern women in particular is their universality.

Lesbian humor isn't trying to sell anything it doesn't have to sell out. Coming out as a lesbian onstage is still a very political act if it weren't more women would do it.

But it also became the experience or was the experience of the writers who were attracted to this kind of humor. They're all men or women who come from the same kind of experience in their own lives.
