Famous quotes containing the words female and/or deities:
“Let God be some tribal female who is known but forbidden.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“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)
