Female Deity

Famous quotes containing the words female and/or deity:

    In life, then, no new thing has ever arisen, or can arise, save out of the impulse of the male upon the female, the female upon the male. The interaction of the male and female spirit begot the wheel, the plough, and the first utterance that was made on the face of the earth.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Man disavows, the Deity disowns me.
    Hell might afford my miseries a shelter;
    Therefore hell keeps her everhungry mouths all
    Bolted against me.
    William Cowper (1731–1800)
