Famous quotes containing the words women and/or act:
“It is my conviction that in general women are more snobbish and class conscious than men and that these ignoble traits are a product of mens attitude toward women and womens passive acceptance of this attitude.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877?)
“Predictions of the future are never anything but projections of present automatic processes and procedures, that is, of occurrences that are likely to come to pass if men do not act and if nothing unexpected happens; every action, for better or worse, and every accident necessarily destroys the whole pattern in whose frame the prediction moves and where it finds its evidence.”
—Hannah Arendt (19061975)
