Famous quotes containing the word women:
“Still I can’t contradict, what so oft has been said,
“Though women are angels, yet wedlock’s the devil.””
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“They tell us that women can bring better things to pass by indirect influence. Try to persuade any man that he will have more weight, more influence, if he gives up his vote, allies himself with no party and relies on influence to achieve his ends! By all means let us use to the utmost whatever influence we have, but in all justice do not ask us to be content with this.”
—Mrs. William C. Gannett, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 5, ch. 8, by Ida Husted Harper (1922)
“Your women of honour, as you call ‘em, are only chary of their reputations, not their persons; and ‘tis scandal that they would avoid, not men.”
—William Wycherley (1640–1716)
