And there is a beautiful thing which is wonderful, to look like a woman, not a green bean.
A woman asking "Am I good? Am I satisfied?" is extremely selfish. The less women fuss about themselves, the less they talk to other women, the more they try to please their husbands, the happier the marriage is going to be.
After forty a woman has to choose between losing her figure or her face. My advice is to keep your face, and stay sitting down.
To sleep around is absolutely wrong for a woman; it's degrading and it completely ruins her personality. Sooner or later it will destroy all that is feminine and beautiful and idealistic in her.
A woman should say: "Have I made him happy? Is he satisfied? Does he love me more than he loved me before? Is he likely to go to bed with another woman?" If he does, then it's the wife's fault because she is not trying to make him happy.
It's every woman's tragedy, that, after a certain age, she looks like a female impersonator. Mind you, we've known some lovely female impersonators, in our time.
It is far easier for a woman to lead a blameless life than it is for a man; all she has to do is to avoid sexual intercourse like the plague.
In the mythic schema of all relations between men and women, man proposes, and woman is disposed of.
Mother goddesses are just as silly a notion as father gods. If a revival of the myths of these cults gives woman emotional satisfaction, it does so at the price of obscuring the real conditions of life. This is why they were invented in the first place.
I know you've been married to the same woman for 69 years. That is marvelous. It must be very inexpensive.
It's always fun to walk down the street with or behind a really beautiful woman, for no reason other than to see how the world reacts to them.
Even the handsomest men do not have the same momentary effect on the world as a truly beautiful woman does.
Behind every great man is a woman rolling her eyes.
The men resent a woman getting any honour in what they consider is essentially their field. Men painters mostly despise women painters. So I have decided to stop squirming, to throw any honour in with Canada and women.
The expression a woman wears on her face is far more important than the clothes she wears on her back.
