Quotes bout Women
The thing women have yet to learn is nobody gives you power. You just take it. —Roseanne Barr
"We ask
justice, we ask equality, we ask that all the civil and political
rights that belong to citizens of the United States, be guaranteed to
us and our daughters forever."
—Susan B. Anthony, Declaration of Rights for Women, July 1876
Sometimes I wonder if men and women really suit each other. Perhaps they should live next door and just visit now and then.
—Katharine Hepburn
