Bathsheba loved Troy in the way that only self-reliant women love when they abandon their self-reliance. When a strong woman recklessly throws away her strength she is worse than a weak woman who has never any strength to throw away. One source of her inadequacy is the novelty of the occasion. She has never had practice in making the best of such a condition. Weakness is doubly weak by being new.
We need to ensure our men and women in uniform are equipped with the very best money can buy. We also have to make sure critical military technologies are developed in America and that the U. S. defense manufacturing base remains healthy and strong.
My best successes came on the heels of failures.
Love one person, take care of them until you die. You know, raise kids. Have a good life. Be a good friend. And try to be completely who you are. And figure out what you personally love. And like go after it with everything you've got no matter how much it takes.
Being Latina for me is also being a strong woman.
Running to Mommy and Daddy on the campus grievance committee is unworthy of strong women.
The thing women have yet to learn is nobody gives you power. You just take it.
Get over the feeling that the two words don't go together - women and power. The fact is, if we don't put the two together and don't understand how power changes complexion in the hands of women, then we're not going to make it. We have to own our personal power.
Many women devlop the second attention, attract a great deal of sexual attention, and for many years, appear to be very vibrant and strong.
I love playing strong women, even if theyre nuts.
It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union. . . . Men, their rights and nothing more; women, their rights and nothing less
If you can't make it better, you can laugh at it.
You know I have never met a woman who is not strong. They don't exist.
There's a lot of women in blues music, lots of strong women and that sort of stuff. It's not the first thing that comes to mind when you think about blues. There were a lot of powerful blues guitar players in the olden times that were women. It's just that when you think about blues, you have this one image in your mind.
Because sorry to say, women run the house. They run the family. They hold things up. I mean, it's like you don't ever see your mom get sick because she handles everything. And it's kind of amazing I think to show people just how strong women are.
I love strong women in films that are allowed to play women and not male fantasies.
No matter how difficult and painful it may be, nothing sounds as good to the soul as the truth.
I’m a bit of a feminist and I carry a machete! I try to be a strong female. I think it’s important. My mum is my idol in life. She’s a very strong woman. I think it’s important for women to be strong and intelligent and hold their own.
The truth will set you free, but first it will make you miserable.
Decide. . . whether or not the goal is worth the risks involved. If it is, stop worrying.
