Superhuman Powers

Famous quotes containing the words superhuman and/or powers:

    Woman ... cannot be content with health and agility: she must make exorbitant efforts to appear something that never could exist without a diligent perversion of nature. Is it too much to ask that women be spared the daily struggle for superhuman beauty in order to offer it to the caresses of a subhumanly ugly mate?
    Germaine Greer (b. 1939)

    If powers divine
    Behold our human actions—as they do—
    I doubt not then but innocence shall make
    False accusation blush.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
