Women Quotes

In the 360-degree battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan, women have served honorably and fought valiantly.

Beautiful women seldom want to act.

She had come into the camp with the child hidden in her dress and during her entire stay there, even in the Nazi barracks where she had kept Margarita under the mattress during inspections, she and the other women had helped conceal the child.
