Women Quotes
-
To be a good mother - a woman must have sense, and that independence of mind which few women possess who are taught to depend entirely on their husbands.

In the era of Venus Williams, girliness and goo isn't the way to every woman's heart. Yet publishers presume that women only buy a book that looks soft and that appears to be all about women, even if it isn't. Yet women, unlike men, buy books by and about both sexes.
