Women don't realize how powerful they are.

If nothing else, I want women to understand that they are powerful. If you look back at history, in almost every big moment, in every leap forward, you find ordinary women at the core. We have more ability to make changes in the world than we can imagine if we have the courage to try.

Sometimes a lot of us men think we are doing everything for the woman we love, but there is an aspect of a woman a man doesn't understand.

I am one of the few men honest enough to say they do not understand women.

Men generally are afraid of a wife who has more understanding than themselves.

The thing women have yet to learn is nobody gives you power. You just take it.

Women live lives of continual apology. They are born and raised to take the blame for other people's behavior. If they are treated without respect, they tell themselves that they have failed to earn respect. If their husbands do not fancy them, it is because they are unattractive.

The foolish and cruel notion that a wife is to obey her husband has sent more women to the grave than to the courts for a divorce.

I feel as if sometimes women can't deal with what's going on and they have no one around who actually understands.

Women are at once the guardians and the well-spring of the world's faith, morality, and tenderness; and if ever they are degraded to a commonplace level with men, this fine essential quality will be impaired, and their weakness will have to beg and follow where now it guides and controls.
