Women S Rights Quotes

“Chefs add more ingredients as they cook, you know. We’re not all put together at once. Consider your soul one of the ingredients eventually added. And, just because the ingredients are there, doesn't mean we must go through with putting that celestial mix into the oven. God allows us the free will to bake our cake of destiny another time. Perhaps that timeless ingredient, the soul, is placed into another chef's recipe somewhere in fate and time—who will look into your little eyes with delight. There are times when the cake isn't baking properly, so the oven is paused—the baking stopped. Other times, the chef has a lot going on and decides not to bake the cake today, and that's ok. For, there is more to life than just baking a cake, as the chef is more than just a chef. She is a person too.”

“The thunder howled and the rain splashed, the leaves played with the breeze and the lightning flashed, and the tigress growled at last. She looked here and she looked there, she hadn't seen so much rain anywhere, a desire suddenly came in her heart, a mad longing that had to start, she felt deep love in the rain, looking at her cubs all over again But two years ago she had been wounded, By cowardly men who wanted her grounded, They were afraid of her power, they wanted to capture her and to enslave her in their tower They laid traps and they waited in the trees, The jungle was full of birds and the bees, The tigress was out hunting for meat, her cubs awaiting in the cave for their treat There was something missing in the air, the fragrance of jasmine was not there, The tigress looked up into the trees and saw the men's faces painted in grease, She challenged them looking into their eyes, And saw fear, fright , and faces full of lies! She roared with all her might, This was her land, She had all the right! The cowardly men crouching behind the trees, Fired their guns in twos and threes, The brave Tigress looked them in the eye, She was the fire and she was the sky, Indomitable force, invincible power, She was the Tigress, The Queen in her Empire None of the bullets could break her Spirit, Only one could graze her right leg a bit, She roared with all her heart's might, For she was the Queen for all to sight! The guns emptied and no more bullets to shoot, The cowardly men jumped from the trees and ran away in two hoots! The Tigress laughed and loudly roared, For she was the power and her Spirit soared She is the Tigress inside every Woman, She has the Power to defeat any Man, Love her and she would love you back, Respect her and she would respect you back, Dare to harm her and she would defeat you till the Last!”

“A tree has roots in the soil yet reaches to the sky. It tells us that in order to aspire we need to be grounded and that no matter how high we go it is from our roots that we draw sustenance. It is a reminder to all of us who have had success that we cannot forget where we came from. It signifies that no matter how powerful we become in government or how many awards we receive, our power and strength and our ability to reach our goals depend on the people, those whose work remain unseen, who are the soil out of which we grow, the shoulders on which we stand”

“The Dark Cloud Is the loneliness you go through because isolation is common and friends are not Is the story of 50,000 raped Bosniak women which history forgot Is the intense pressure of being crushed under a pile of mental weight Is the backstabbing ex-boyfriend who took you for granted and compelled you to question the integrity of your relationship, including the first date”

“Prostitution isn't illegal to protect women. Prostitutes would be much safer if it was legal. It's illegal to protect men. Men are addicted to sex. Sex is like heroin to men. If all women were allowed to charge admission to their pussy, they would have total control over men and it would cause a giant wealth transfer. Men would go broke and women would end up with all the money and power.”

“I was lonely, desperate, and angry. At that moment, I truly understood what it meant to be a Saudi woman. It meant being confronted with every possible kind of obstacle and discrimination. It meant being told that if you want to race with men, you’d have to do it with your hands and legs cut off. I started to wish I had been born somewhere—anywhere—else.”

“Women are born to serve and breed, and when we fail at this, what else is there? What is it that we can do that men can't? We bring their screaming mouths into this world only to be told by those mouths, now grown, that we're lesser than. Only good for being on our knees, backs, or perched over stoves. We're told, You're smart for a woman, you're mouthy for a woman, you're brazen for a woman. They tell us we're dangerous and emotional, prone to hysterics like landmines, and I wonder, if this is true, why aren't they afraid?”

“I notice you have the assault proof vest - So it's my fault I guess. So apparently I didn't say 'no' as loud as my clothes could say 'yes.' You see I didn't know that my ‘no’ wasn't enough - I didn't understand that my body became less precious because certain dresses make me look hot. And I guess if I'm wearing the wrong top then my ‘yes’ is the same as ‘stop.’ And you shouldn't have to, just because I begged you to. I'm begging you - Tell me the magic outfit and I'll buy it. Apparently my ‘no’ wasn't heard, even when I screamed. So I need my clothes to be quiet.”

“Strong women are the architects of their destinies, the CEOs of their lives, and the superheroes of their own stories. They don't just break glass ceilings; they shatter them with style. Their sass is their superpower, and their laughter is their battle cry. From juggling responsibilities to sparkling kindness like glitter, they do it all with flair and finesse. So, here's to the strong women; you make the world a better place!”

“Being surveilled with the intention of assault or rape is practically mundane, it happens so often. It's such an ingrained part of the female experience that it doesn't register as unusual. The danger of it, then, is in its routine, in how normalized it is for a woman to feel monitored, so much so that she might not know she's in trouble until that invisible line is crossed from "typical patriarchy" to "you should run.”

“Romance novels feature nuanced portrayals of female characters having adventures, making choices, and accepting themselves just as they are. When we say these stories are silly and unrealistic, we are telling young girls not to expect to be the heroines in their own real lives.”

“These are burning times. And they call for Burning Women. Women embodied in their passion. Woman feeling in their bodies. Creative women. Courageous women. Women who have learned to run on a different power source to the world which is falling into flames around her. She has already disentangled herself from the wreckage of the patriarchal culture, so she will not be dazed, confused and disorientated by the systemic changes happening around her. Centred within herself, receptive to the Earth beyond her, she knows how to cultivate from the ashes, she knows how to find the embers to fuel the new fire. Burning Women arise. Our time is now. Our time has come.”

“ماذا أكتب عن هذا الموضوع؟ لأنه وباختصار ترن كلمة "عيب" وتنخر في رؤوسنا بل في أجسادنا لتجعلنا عبدة الخوف من الكلمة والأحكام التي ستُطلق علينا... لأنها تعرقل كل خطوة نحاول أن نأخذها عكس تيار المجتمع، لأن المجتمع يطلب ويقول لكل امرأة وحتى فتاة "تحدّثي دائماً بصوت يكاد أن يكون مسموعاً، فصوتك عورة... وضحكتك عورة...ورأيك احتفظي فيه لنفسك معظم الأحيان... ومطالبتك لحريتك تعني أنك مسترجلة..." كل هذه الأصوات هي التي جعلت من صوتي في كلماتي أعلى... لأنني وجدت في الكتابة مسرحي، وأرفض أن أدع أي من آفات المجتمع تلويث هذا المسرح. قد يجادل البعض ويقول بأن الوقت تغير، والمرأة لم تعد كما كانت، ولكنني بثقة أقول لا إن الزمن لم يتغير، ربّما تغير للبعض، ولكن إذا وسعنا نطاق رؤيتنا لتشمل أبعد من حدود محيطنا لأدركنا جيداً بأن الكثير من العيب لم يتغير بعد، وإن كان قد تغير (لغرض الحوار فقط) فهنالك أمر هام يجب أخذه بعين الاعتبار، وهو الآثار السلبية التي تتركها كلمة "عيب" في نفسية الكثير من نساء المجتمع ولا أقول هذا تخميناً بل عن تجربة شخصية... تجربة صراع الذات ما بين ثقافة العيب... والأنا.”

“While significant strides have been made in the pursuit of life expectancy, healthcare, educational opportunities, and constitutional protections for women, the Supreme Court, in particular, still wrestles with their status, as evidenced by their problems in pursuing equal opportunity in education and employment, reproductive freedom, the military, and violence against women.”

“Freedom of the heart and the mind is a splendid thing. It’s no guarantee that a high birth will ensure it, or, for that matter, even a high education. It’s not that ill-treatment will always become a catalyst to rebellion. Scores of ill-treated women retreat more and more into their shell of limitations. It’s not certain that a master or guru will awaken you from that slumber; there is no guarantee about these things. No. You cannot be sure. And then, what all this will not achieve, one quiet moment of insight will.”

“You were born free. You are free. You will always remain free. But remember, stay close to everything you love. Keep on writing, for it is through ink your love will shine through. Find a good man and settle down, for it is through union, your love will shine through. Live your life. For it is through your breath, your love will shine through.”

“Look, you had it easier than me,' she says. 'You think Nana and Papa were busy supporting women's rights? No, they wanted me to meet a nice man and get married and cook and clean for him and give them grandchildren, and that's it. You were born into a world where feminism existed and was readily available to you. I had to acquire that knowledge. I didn't know I could be on my own.”

“The only path of escape he could conceive as yet for Lady Harman lay through the chivalry of some other man. That a woman could possibly rebel against one man without the sympathy and moral maintenance of another was still outside the range of Mr. Brumley's understanding. It is still outside the range of most men's understandings -- and of a great many women's.”
