sexes

«Nobody will ever win the battle of the sexes. There's too much fraternizing with the enemy.»
«I don't see why I can't have friends of both sexes without wild rumors being circulated. It's crazy.»
«I have urged on woman independence of man, not that I do not think the sexes mutually needed by one another, but because in woman this fact has led to an excessive devotion, which has cooled love, degraded marriage and prevented it her sex from being what it should be to itself or the other. I wish woman to live, first for God's sake. Then she will not take what is not fit for her from a sense of weakness and poverty. Then if she finds what she needs in man embodied, she will know how to love and be worthy of being loved.»
«People ask me what I think about that woman priest thing. What, a woman priest? Women priests. Great, great. Now there's priests of both sexes I don't listen to.»
Author: Bill Hicks (Comedian) | Keywords: ask me, priest, priests, sexes
«No one will ever win the battle of the sexes; there's too much fraternizing with the enemy.»
«Love between sexes is a sin in theology, a forbidden intercourse in jurisprudence, a mechanical insult in medicine, and a subject philosophy has no time for.»
«I love the idea of there being two sexes, don't you?»
Author: James Thurber (Writer) | Keywords: sexes
«Never may an act of possession be exercised upon a free being; the exclusive possession of a woman is no less unjust than the possession of slaves; all men are born free, all have equal rights: never should we lose sight of those principles; according to which never may there be granted to one sex the legitimate right to lay monopolizing hands upon the other, and never may one of the sexes, or classes, arbitrarily possess the other.»
«It would be a thousand pities if women wrote like men, or lived like men, or looked like men, for if two sexes are quite inadequate, considering the vastness and variety of the world, how should we manage with one only? Ought not education to bring out and fortify the differences rather than the similarities? For we have too much likeness as it is, and if an explorer should come back and bring word of other sexes looking through the branches of other trees at other skies, nothing would be of greater service to humanity; and we should have the immense pleasure into the bargain of watching Professor X rush for his measuring-rods to prove himself ''superior.''»
«Sexes make no Difference; since in Souls there is none: And they are the Subjects of Friendship.»
Author: William Penn (Founder) | Keywords: sexes, subjects
