Sayings About Women

اقوال في النساء

• Women have instincts that endear cruelty to them. We men have done much to set them free, yet they would be nothing but our slaves — and we nothing but their masters.
"Oscar Wilde"

• God did not make woman from man's head, lest she rule over him, nor from his thigh, lest he lord it over her. He made her from his side, that she might be his equal; from beneath his arm, that she might be under his protection; and from near his heart, that he might love her.
"Balzac"

• If that woman were a falcon to which the strings of my heart were tied, I would set her loose and leave her beneath the storms to seek what prey she might.
"Shakespeare"
