Famous quotes containing the word beauvoir:

    In order for the artist to have a world to express he must first be situated in this world, oppressed or oppressing, resigned or rebellious, a man among men.
    —Simone De Beauvoir (1908–1986)

    Between women love is contemplative; caresses are intended less to gain possession of the other than gradually to re-create the self through her; separateness is abolished, there is no struggle, no victory, no defeat; in exact reciprocity each is at once subject and object, sovereign and slave; duality become mutuality.
    —Simone De Beauvoir (1908–1986)

    One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman.
    —Simone De Beauvoir (1908–1986)
