Famous quotes containing the word female:

    Here falling houses thunder on your head,
    And here a female atheist talks you dead.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    To be sure he’s a “Man,” the male must see to it that the female be clearly a “Woman,” the opposite of a “Man,” that is, the female must act like a faggot.
    Valerie Solanas (b. 1940)

    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)
