“I do not regard the rise of woman as a bad sign. Rather do I fancy that her traditional subordination was itself an artificial and undesirable condition based on Oriental influences. Our virile Teutonic ancestors did not think their wives unworthy to follow them into battle, or scorn to dream of winged Valkyries bearing them to Valhalla.” ThinkingDreamWomenWifeInfluenceConditionsBattleRegardTraditionalFancyAncestorArtificialScornUnworthyUndesirableSubordinationValhalla Book:Selected Letters 1934-1937 Source: Selected Letters 1934-1937
“I saw battle-corpses, myriads of them, And the white skeletons of young men-I saw them; I saw the debris and debris of all the dead soldiers of the war; But I saw they were not as was thought; They themselves were fully at rest-they suffer'd not; The living remain'd and suffer'd-the mother suffer'd, And the wife and the child, and the musing comrade suffer'd, And the armies that remain'd suffer'd.” MenChildrenWarYoungMotherSufferingWhiteSawsWifeBattleArmySoldierYoung ManVeteranCorpsesComradeSkeletonsVeterans DayMusingsDebrisDead Soldiers Book:Passage to India Source: Passage to India
“The stories I would hear from men who were going through divorces and in child custody battles, the lies their wives told about them being predators, that they had fondled or abused the children, and these guys didn't know what to do.

You've gotta understand it."” KnowsMenChildrenSaidIdeasStoriesLyingGuyWifeFeminismModernBattleDivorceNo IdeaCombatPredatorCustodyGoing Through DivorceChild Custody Author:Rush Limbaugh
“My wife says, "You're an idiot! Why do you Google your name and all you're doing is looking for trouble?" Because I'm thin-skinned. Because I don't like to be mischaracterized. I just don't. If someone is going to criticize what you've written and you believe in what you've written then you should respond. Now do I sometimes fall in the gutter myself and look silly doing it? Of course. Some battles I win, some battles I lose.” BelieveSometimesFallWinningWifeTroubleBattleMy WifeSillyIdiotCriticizeGoogle Author:Buzz Bissinger
“Gandhi once declared that it was his wife who unwittingly taught him the effectiveness of nonviolence. Who better than women should know that battles can be won without resort to physical strength? Who better than we should know all the power that resides in noncooperation?” KnowsShouldPeaceWifeTaughtBattleNonviolenceResortsEffectivenessPhysical Strength Book:We Are All Part of One Another: A Barbara Deming Reader Source: We Are All Part of One Another: A Barbara Deming Reader
