Women are only children of a larger growth. A man of sense only trifles with them, plays with them, humours and flatters them, as he does with a sprightly and forward child; but he neither consults them about, nor trusts them with, serious matters. Philip Stanhope
Women are oppressed in the east, in the west, in the south, in the north. Women are oppressed inside, outside home, a woman is oppressed in religion, she is oppressed outside religion. Taslima Nasrin
Women are quite capable of entering into a friendship with a man, but to keep it going that takes a little physical antipathy as well. Friedrich Nietzsche
Women are reputed never to be disgusted. The sad fact is that they often are, but not with men; following the lead of men, they are most often disgusted with themselves. Germaine Greer
Women are so much in love with compliments that rather than want them, they will compliment one another, yet mean no more by it than the men do. Samuel Richardson

Honore de Balzac
Women are tenacious, and all of them should be tenacious of respect; without esteem they cannot exist; esteem is the first demand that they make of love. Honore de Balzac
