Talking

Famous quotes containing the word talking:

    “There’s a point of poverty at which the spirit isn’t with the body all the time. It finds the body really too unbearable. So it’s almost as if you were talking to the soul itself. And a soul’s not properly responsible.”
    —Louis-Ferdinand Céline (1894–1961)

    “What we men share is the experience of having been raised by women in a culture that stopped our fathers from being close enough to teach us how to be men, in a world in which men were discouraged from talking about our masculinity and questioning its roots and its mystique, in a world that glorified masculinity and gave us impossibly unachievable myths of masculine heroics, but no domestic models to teach us how to do it.”
    —Frank Pittman (20th century)

    “The sight of women talking together has always made men uneasy; nowadays it means rank subversion.”
    —Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
