“For please to tell me what is better to look at than a lovely woman, and I will come from my dinner to see. And all women, never mind who, or what, have a loveliness of their own, so who will say that we must cover our eyes and see nothing only stones and sky, is one without good sense and feeling, an ingrate for the gift of vision, and barely half a man.” WomenBeauty Book:HOW GREEN WAS MY VALLEY Source: HOW GREEN WAS MY VALLEY

“Women have their own braveries, their own mighty courageousness that is of woman, and not to be compared with the courage shown by man.” WomenCourageBraveryCourageousnessCourage Of Women Author:Richard Llewellyn
“For as men have fists and heads to defend themselves, so women have a gentleness of silence about them, a barrier built of things of the spirit, of pain, of quiet, of helplessness, of grace, of all that is beautiful and womanly an equal part, given to them because they are women in defense of their womaness. And this barrier a man will find against him to turn aside his male attack, keep his arms pinned, stop his mouth, cool his eyes, reduce his heat and restrain his idle imaginings. This barrier it is that women who are women keep always at a height, coming from behind it only when, with knowledge and in light, they trust. You shall see it in their eyes.” WomenTrustBarriersWomanlyWomaness Book:HOW GREEN WAS MY VALLEY Source: HOW GREEN WAS MY VALLEY
