Experience is the only prophecy of wise men.
May none but honest and wise men ever rule under this roof.
Is it possible Hanukkah doesn't inspire folksy songs? Plot lines may be a part. The Christmas story has a lot of material to work with. There's Jesus and his birth, the wise men, their gifts and tons of frankincense.
What interests me is why men think of women as witches. It's because they're so fascinating and exasperating, so other.
In the past, men created witches: now they create mental patients.
You could make a case that women addicted men to their sexuality and then withdrew their sexuality until we provided them with a source of income.
There never yet has been a great system sustained by force under which all the best faculties of men have not slowly withered.
I don't think there are any men who are faithful to their wives.
I'm very proud of being a woman, and as a woman, I don't even like the word 'feminism' because when I hear that word, I associate it with women trying to pretend to be men, and I'm not interested in trying to pretend to be a man. I don't want to embrace manhood; I want to embrace my womanhood.
I'm constantly on the go and have found rushing round after a new born baby is the best form of exercise! I always remind myself that men appreciate a womanly shape and some curves!
As women and men, we're not primed and taught to feel that women are as inspirational as men.
My responsibility will be to unite all the women and men ready to take on the tremendous challenges which are waiting for us, and to act.
Achieving gender equality requires the engagement of women and men, girls and boys. It is everyone's responsibility.
My favorite thing to do is rip the covers off a script when reading for writers to hire and make everybody read without names on the covers of the script. I can't tell you how many times my writers, women and men, will pick people of color and women much more often than they would with a cover on the script.
There are so many more women and men who deserve opportunities. People of color. Period.
We want young people to come forward with bright ideas; we want the women and men in our country to have jobs.
Women writers have been told, forever, that our stories were not valuable. Not as valuable as men's stories about wars, business, power.
Nobody is surprised that women writers accurately represent male characters over and over again, no doubt because everybody knows that women understand men much better than vice-versa.
Male critics and men in the publishing industry want from their women writers what they want from their wives. I'm interested in presenting characters that are more challenging, threatening, complicated and unpredictable.
If men are wont to play with swearing anywhere, can we expect they should be serious and strict therein at the bar or in the church.
