Even to me the issue of "stay small, sweet, quiet, and modest" sounds like an outdated problem, but the truth is that women still run into those demands whenever we find and use our voices.

The saddest thing a girl can do is dumb herself down for a guy.

Most maidens are perfectly capable of rescuing themselves in my experience, at least the ones worth something, in any case.

Fay had a spot of blood on the left side of her mouth and I took a wet cloth and wiped it off. Women were meant to suffer; no wonder they asked for constant declarations of love.

I have never studied the art of paying compliments to women; but I must say that if all that has been said by orators and poets since the creation of the world in praise of women were applied to the women of America, it would not do them justice for their conduct during this war.

إن عقل المرأة إذا ذبل ومات ،فقد ذبل عقل الأمة كلها ومات.
