WILLIAM GAY
Provinces of Night
Commit a child to the care of a worthless, ignorant woman, and no culture in after-life will remedy the evil you have done.
SAMUEL SMILES
Character
Men act and women appear. Men look at women. Women watch themselves being looked at. This determines not only most relations between men and women but also the relation of women to themselves.
JOHN BERGER
Ways of Seeing
When women take off their corsets and heighten their skirts it always means high inflation and low morals.
JAMES LAVER
attributed, Sûrya India, vol. 12
If women are by barbarians reduced to the level of slaves, it is because barbarians themselves have never yet risen to the rank of men.
