    'Tis strange what a man may do, and a woman yet think him an angel.

    William Makepeace Thackeray
    Men and Women
  2. 2

    A good cigar is as great a comfort to a man as a good cry is to a woman.

    Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton
    Men and Women
  3. 3

    A lady is smarter than a gentleman, maybe, she can sew a fine seam, she can have a baby, she can use her intuition instead of her brain, but she can't fold a paper in a crowded train.

    Phyllis McGinley
    Men and Women
  4. 4

    A man can be happy with any woman, as long as he does not love her.

    Oscar Wilde
    Men and Women
  5. 5

    A man of sense only trifles with them, plays with them, humors and flatters them, as he does with a sprightly and forward child; but he neither consults them about, nor trusts them with, serious matters.

    Earl of Chesterfield
    Men and Women
  6. 6

    A man's brain has a more difficult time shifting from thinking to feeling than a women's brain does.

    Barbara De Angelis
    Men and Women
  7. 7

    A man's idea in a game of cards is war, cruel, devastating, and pitiless. A lady's idea of it is a combination of larceny, embezzlement and burglary.

    Finley Peter Dunne
    Men and Women
  8. 8

    A man's women folk, whatever their outward show of respect for his merit and authority, always regard him secretly as an ass, and with something akin to pity. His most gaudy sayings and doings seldom deceive them; they see the actual man within, and know him for a shallow and pathetic fellow. In this fact, perhaps, lies one of the best proofs of feminine intelligence, or, as the common phrase makes it, feminine intuition.

    H. L. Mencken
    Men and Women
  9. 9

    A pretty little collection of weaknesses and a terror of spiders are our indispensable stock-in-trade with the men.

    Colette
    Men and Women
  10. 10

    A woman who gives any advantage to a man may expect a lover -- but will sooner or later find a tyrant.

    George Gordon Noel Byron, 6th Baron Byron
    Men and Women
  11. 11

    A woman who looks like a girl and thinks like a man is the best sort, the most enjoyable to be and the most pleasurable to have and to hold.

    Julie Burchill
    Men and Women
  12. 12

    A woman without a man is like a fish without a bicycle.

    Gloria Steinem
    Men and Women
  13. 13

    And when a woman's will is as strong as the man's who wants to govern her, half her strength must be concealment.

    George Eliot
    Men and Women
  14. 14

    As vivacity is the gift of women, gravity is that of men.

    Joseph Addison
    Men and Women
  15. 15

    Between men and women there is no friendship possible. There is passion, enmity, worship, love, but no friendship.

    Oscar Wilde
    Men and Women
  16. 16

    But as to women, who can penetrate the real sufferings of their she condition? Man's very sympathy with their estate has much of selfishness and more suspicion. Their love, their virtue, beauty, education, but form good housekeepers, to breed a nation.

    George Gordon Noel Byron, 6th Baron Byron
    Men and Women
  17. 17

    Coming to terms with the rhythms of women's lives means coming to terms with life itself, accepting the imperatives of the body rather than the imperatives of an artificial, man-made, perhaps transcendentally beautiful civilization. Emphasis on the male work-rhythm is an emphasis on infinite possibilities; emphasis on the female rhythms is an emphasis on a defined pattern, on limitation.

    Margaret Mead
    Men and Women
  18. 18

    Either sex alone is half itself.

    Alfred Tennyson, 1st Baron Tennyson
    Men and Women
  19. 19

    Every woman is like a time-zone. She is a nocturnal fragment of your journey. She brings you unflaggingly closer to the next night.

    Jean Baudrillard
    Men and Women
  20. 20

    For a man to strike any women is most brutal, and I, as well as everyone else, think this far worse than any attempt to shoot, which, wicked as it is, is at least more comprehensible and more courageous.

    Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom
    Men and Women
  21. 21

    For the woman, the man is a means: the end is always the child.

    Friedrich Nietzsche
    Men and Women
  22. 22

    Girls we love for what they are; men for what they promise to be.

    Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
    Men and Women
  23. 23

    Given the cultural barriers to intersex conversation, the amazing thing is that we would even expect women and men to have anything to say to each other for more than ten minutes at a stretch. The barriers are ancient -- perhaps rooted, as some paleontologist may soon discover, in the contrast between the occasional guttural utterances exchanged in male hunting bands and the extended discussions characteristic of female food-gathering groups.

    Barbara Ehrenreich
    Men and Women
  24. 24

    He is half of a blessed man. Left to be finished by such as she; and she a fair divided excellence, whose fullness of perfection lies in him.

    William Shakespeare
    Men and Women
  25. 25

    I do not know who first invented the myth of sexual equality. But it is a myth willfully fostered and nourished by certain semi-scientists and other fiction writers. And it has done more, I suspect, to unsettle marital happiness than any other false doctrine of this myth-ridden age.

    Phyllis McGinley
    Men and Women
