"The "mystique" that Friedan spoke of was the image of the woman as mother, wife, living through her husband, through her children, giving up her own dreams for that. She concluded: "The only way for a woman as for a man, to find herself, to know herself as a person, is by creative work of her own."

Life is short, nature is hostile, and man is ridiculous; but oddly enough most misfortunes have their compensations, and with a certain humour and a good deal of horse-sense one can make a fairly good job of what is after all a matter of very small consequence.

Skupljanje hrane nesumnjivo je bilo na prvom mjestu zenskih duznosti buduci da je taj zadatak odrzavao pleme na zivotu. Ni u jednom se trenutku pretpovijesne zene s djecom ili bez nje nisu oslanjale na svoje partnere, lovce, za nabavku hrane.

Evidentemente, muitos destes cegos estao a ser pisados, empurrados, esmurrados, e o efeito do panico, um efeito natural, pode-se dizer, a natureza animal e mesmo assim, tambem a vegetal se comportaria de igual maneira se nao tivesse todas aquelas raizes a prende-la no chao, e que bonito seria poder ver arvores do bosque a fugir ao incendio.

Lives there upon any world such another as John Carter, Prince of Helium? Lives there another man who could fight his way back and forth across a warlike planet, facing savage beasts and hordes of savage men, for the love of a woman?

Man is an animal, but even in his animal functions, he is not confined to the implicit, as the animal is; he becomes conscious of them, recognizes them, and lifts them, as, for instance, the process of digestion, into self-conscious science. In this way man breaks the barrier of his implicit and immediate character, so that precisely because he knows that he is an animal, he ceases to be an animal and attains knowledge of himself as spirit.

The shield wall reeks of shit, and all a man wants is to be home, to be anywhere but on this field that prepares for battle, but none of us will turn and run or else we will be despised for ever. We pretend we want to be there, and when the wall at last advances, step by step, and the heart is thumping fast as a bird's wing beating, the world seems unreal.

I don't care if your the President of the United States, the Queen of England, the inventor of the microchip, a bankable movie star, or an ordinary Joe or Jill, you're no paragon in my book, but the same as a zebra or gazelle - a source of protein. In fact, I'd rather hunt you, because you're slow and feeble.

And she was angry because she knew she was capable of many things she couldn't even define to herself, so they seemed like bad dreams - that is what she told me. She told me she was eaten up with unused power and thought she might be a witch - except, she said, if she were a man, these things she thought about would be ordinarily acceptable.

Let me tell ye in your sleep how much I love you. For there's no so much I can be saying to ye while ye wake, but the same poor words, again and again. While ye sleep in my arms, I can say things to ye that would be daft and silly waking, and your dreams will know the truth of them. Go

I felt that he was a captive of financial and sentimental commitments, like every other man I know, and that he was no more free to fall in love with a strange woman he saw on a street corner than he was to take a walking trip through French Guiana or to recommence his life in Chicago under an assumed name.

!Ay misero de mi, y ay infelice! Apurar, cielos, pretendo, ya que me tratais asi, que delito cometi contra vosotros naciendo. Aunque si naci, ya entiendo que delito he cometido; bastante causa ha tenido vuestra justicia y rigor, pues el delito mayor del hombre es haber nacido. Solo quisiera saber para apurar mis desvelos -dejando a una parte, cielos, el delito del nacer-, ?que mas os pude ofender, para castigarme mas? ?No nacieron los demas? Pues si los demas nacieron, ?que privilegios tuvieron que no yo goce jamas?
