Famous Quotes about Women |

Nancy Astor

Mae West

The angel of the Family is Woman. Mother, wife, or sister,
Woman is the caress of life, the soothing sweetness of affection
shed over its toils, a reflection for the individual of the
loving providence which watches over Humanity. In her there
is treasure enough of consoling tenderness to allay every
pain. Moreover for every one of us she is the initiator of
the future. The mother's first kiss teaches the child love;
the first holy kiss of the woman he loves teaches man hope
and faith in life; and love and faith create a desire for
perfection and the power of reaching towards it step by step;
create the future, in short, of which the living symbol is
the child, link between us and the generations to come. Through
her the Family, with its divine mystery of reproduction, points
to Eternity.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Biologically speaking, if something bites you, it is more likely
