Rhesus Negative Woman

Famous quotes containing the words negative and/or woman:

“The idealist’s programme of political or economic reform may be impracticable, absurd, demonstrably ridiculous; but it can never be successfully opposed merely by pointing out that this is the case. A negative opposition cannot be wholly effectual: there must be a competing idealism; something must be offered that is not only less objectionable but more desirable.”
—Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)

“A man must know how to fly in the face of opinion; a woman to submit to it.”
—Germaine de Staël (1766–1817)
