Women S Issues Quotes

“If you have survived an abuser, and you tried to make things right… If you forgave, and you struggled, and even if the expression of your grief and your anger tumbled out at times in too much rage and too many words… If you spent years hanging on to the concepts of faith, hope, and love, even after you knew in your heart that those intangibles, upon which life is formed and sustained, would fail in the end… And especially, if you stood between your children - or anyone - and him, and took the physical, emotional, and spiritual pummeling in their stead, then you are a hero.”
― Jenna Brooks

“If I had a daughter, here's what I'd tell her:

One day, when you've worked hard for what you want, when people see that you are confident and intelligent and that you recognize your own self-worth, when you take care of yourself, support yourself, and stand up for yourself, that is the day that the world will call you "a cruel and selfish bitch."

It's a tough title to earn and you should be and proud of it.”
― Patricia V. Davis, The Diva Doctrine: 16 Universal Principles Every Woman Needs to Know

“Claims have been made that I've been on a strict workout routine regulated by co-stars, whipped into shape by trainers I've never met, eating sprouted grains I can't pronounce and ultimately losing 14 pounds off my 5'3" frame. Losing 14 pounds out of necessity in order to live a healthier life is a huge victory. I'm a petite person to begin with, so the idea of my losing this amount of weight is utter lunacy. If I were to lose 14 pounds, I'd have to part with both arms. And a foot.”
― Scarlett Johansson

“هذا الضعف الذي يلازم المرأة أبدا قد جعلها قليلة الركون إلى نفسها عظيمة التعويل على غيرها وصغرها في نظر نفسها فصارت لا ترى لها قدرا إلا في نظر الناس إليها و إنها لتتعلق لهذا السبب بمن يعرض عنها ولا يحفل بها لأنها تحسب إعراضه نقصا فيها على كل حال
وكثيرا ما تعالج إستمالة ذلك المعرض عنها لتزيل ما علق بخاطرها من ريب في قوة جمالها ونفوذ سلطانها والويل لمن تعلم أن لها شأنا كبيرا عنده فإن في الإعجاب بها كل غايتها من الرجل فإذا وثقت من إدراكها عنده لم يبق لها شأن معه وفرغت منه لتن��ر تأثير جمالها في سواه ولعل هذا يجعل المراة أحيانا تستصغر نفسها مع الزوج الفاسق و تستصغر الزوج الصالح معها”
― عباس محمود العقاد, الإنسان الثاني

“We still live in a world where many men are pissed off that women choose to be powerful equals rather than submissive objects of sexual release. I am a human. A human being. Who cares how my body randomly decided to generate its reproductive organs in utero? I am not here with the obligation and purpose of being sexually appealing to another human being. I am here to get shit done.”
― Jennifer DeLucy

― Roy L. Pickering Jr., Matters of Convenience

“...the locale did not make him think of her, nor did most things. He felt no negativity about the time they had spent together, but simply did not dwell on it much. She had been a seat filler, memorable as the smiling face of a beautiful girl in the window of a passing train, inspiring a fleeting moment of joy and promise, immediately forgotten with the opening of that day’s newspaper.”
― Roy L. Pickering Jr., Matters of Convenience

“Life was a swirl of mysteries, each one waiting to be plucked up and explored, but not necessarily solved. As the weight of responsibility bore down on a person, it could feel like a long list of chores leading up to the final one - figuring out how to die with dignity. But Quincy’s interpretation of his surroundings seemed a truer representation of life’s meaning, or rather, the lack of meaning other than to dazzle and delight and befuddle from cradle to grave.”
― Roy L. Pickering Jr.

“Was happiness (which was perhaps achieved not by getting what you wanted, but rather, by obtaining what you didn’t know you wished for until it was in hand) a hologram that would continually change appearance with the slightest shift of perspective? Or maybe happiness by definition was a temporary state of being recognizable only in hindsight. It was impossible to catch what always managed to be overrun and end up in the rear view mirror.”
― Roy L. Pickering Jr., Matters of Convenience
