"A woman should be good for everything..." - Quote by Euripides

“A change is always nice.”

“I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees.”

“The fiercest anger of all, the most incurable, Is that which rages in the place of dearest love.”

“and then he could not see her come into a room without a sense of the flowing of robes, of the flowering of blossoms, of the purple waves of the sea, of all things that are lovely and mutable on the surface but still and passionate in their heart.”

“What else goes wrong for a woman-except her marriage?”

“You would have imagined her at one moment a maniac, at another a queen.”

“The appointment of a woman to office is an innovation for which the public is not prepared, nor I.”

“It is degrading both for man and woman that woman should be called upon or induced to forsake the hearth and shoulder the rifle for the protection of that hearth.”

“It was strange to think that all the great women of fiction were, until Jane Austen's day, not only seen by the other sex, but seen only in relation to the other sex. And how small a part of woman's life is that.”
