Famous quotes containing the words female and/or deities:
“The notion of a universality of human experience is a confidence trick and the notion of a universality of female experience is a clever confidence trick.”

“The gods themselves,
Humbling their deities to love, have taken
The shapes of beasts upon them. Jupiter
Became a bull, and bellowed; the green Neptune
A ram, and bleated; and the fire-robed god,
Golden Apollo, a poor humble swain.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
