Female Quotes

Elsa’s mother no longer spoke to her of men and love, but of duty and fate and accepting one’s burden.

I want to single out Kathryn Hahn’s performance in Jill Soloway’s film ‘Afternoon Delight,’ which in my opinion should have been nominated for an Oscar. I think it’s one of the greatest female performances I’ve ever seen on screen, and I think she’s wildly talented Picture Quote #1

I think it would be fair to say that most female dancers have dealt with, whether it’s an extreme, or minor complex in eating disorders. So the first thing I would say to girls who are feeling that way is you’re not alone. You’re far from alone. You’re the majority. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with what you’re feeling Picture Quote #1

In 1996, Shakespeare’s ‘Twelfth Night’ was removed from classrooms after a school board passed a ‘prohibition of alternative lifestyle instruction’ act. Apparently, a young female character disguised as a boy was a danger to the youth of Merrimack, New Hampshire Picture Quote #1

It was weird - writing is a stupid thing to do.

People ask why there are so few female artists who succeed. It’s because women are not ready to sacrifice as much as men. Women want a man, they want a family, they want to have children, they want to be loved, and to be an artist. And they can’t; it’s impossible Picture Quote #1

Aggressive female icons have been chronically demeaned... It’s fine for male artists to be angry - they’re encouraged to outwardly express their aggression - but women? I’ve been painted as an aggressive Feminazi because I’m blunt, stubborn, independent, forthright Picture Quote #1

My brother often complains to me about the ‘angry Asian male’ in the United States. As a female, I haven’t encountered this, but Asian-American men are angry.
