To put a woman on the ticket would challenge the loyalty of women everywhere to their sex, because it would be made to seem that the defeat of the ticket meant the defeat for a hundred years of women's chance to be truly equal with men in politics.
A woman can produce what no man can: a child.
Young men still desire women as much as ever, even though they don't want to marry them as much.
In politics women type the letters, lick the stamps, distribute the pamphlets and get out the vote. Men get elected.
Women can't have an honest exchange in front of men without having it called a cat fight.
If men had to bear babies, there'd never be more than one child in a family.
There aren't many women now I'd like to see as President - but there are fewer men.
I refuse the compliment that I think like a man, thought has no sex, one either thinks or one does not.
There are no hopeless situations; there are only men who have grown hopeless about them.
They say women talk too much. If you have worked in Congress you know that the filibuster was invented by men.
Time comes when every man's got to feel something new--when he's got to feel young again, just because he's growing old. Women are just the same. But when we get that way we change our hairdress. Or get a new cook.
A great man is one sentence.
my definition of the ideal man is 'that particular man with whom a woman happens to be in love at that particular time.
In the final analysis there is no other solution to man's progress but the day's honest work, the day's honest decision, the day's generous utterances, and the day's good deed.
