I said, wouldn't it be nice, instead of having these women fight with each other over men, which seems to be more of a cliche, wouldn't it be wonderful if they were the true comrades and it took these men much more time to infiltrate their friendships.

They are more than men at the outset of their battles; at the end they are less than the women.

What is interesting to me is looking at how male and female writers depict men who, come in behind to fill those domestic duties, deal with personal and cultural lack of respect for doing what is lingeringly perceived as 'women's work.'

Their effort to place the women upon the same industrial level with themselves in order that all may pull together in the effort to maintain reasonable conditions of life.

In the business of war, the role of women is really to maintain normalcy and ensure that there is cultural continuity.

I am tired of women playing action heroes like men, because they are not men. But sometimes they are written like men.

If men and women are to understand each other, to enter into each other's nature with mutual sympathy, and to become capable of genuine comradeship, the foundation must be laid in youth.

I think competitiveness between two people is still relevant, and the battle of the sexes still intrigues.

There seems to be a theme running through the women I play. They take their circumstances and try to make the best of them.

Until the masculine role is humanized, women will tend to be much better at solving dangerous conflicts.
