I am drawn to intimate, often uncomfortable portraits of a woman persevering and awakening.

The New or Future Eve is emptied of all inner life and turned into a shell. The bitter irony in this is that her perfection recalls nothing so much as a corpse.

Who can find a virtuous woman?For her price is far above rubies.

She’ll be a fierce woman, that one. It’ll take a hell of a man to love her right. Be like living with a thunderstorm. Same as her mother. A fierce woman. Force of nature. The...

I’m very interested in portraying homosexual man and woman in my films because I’m interested in their lives and their problems.

Woman is the salvation or the destruction of the family. She carries its destiny in the folds of her mantle.

The clothes back in those days were made so much better than clothes are today. They actually took time to make clothes to fit a woman’s body. Today they make clothes that fit sizes, so...

Love, as life, is a journey. Finding true love for the ever after is an amazing achievement.

I think trying too hard to be sexy is the worst thing in the world a woman can do.

A lady is nothing very specific. One man’s lady is another man’s woman; sometimes, one man’s lady is another man’s wife. Definitions overlap but they almost never coincide.

Instead of becoming a woman of the world, become a woman of the Word.

I prefer people to consider me by who I am and what I do and not by how I look!

A woman never argues with a compliment.

We need houses as we need clothes, architecture stimulates fashion. It’s like hunger and thirst — you need them both.

Every woman’s heart cannot be opened with words; sometimes you need to use your hands.

The woman who does not choose to love should cut the matter short at once, by holding out no hopes to her suitor.

A beautiful woman delights the eye; a wise woman, the understanding; a pure one, the soul.

Most of our addictions [shopping, food, bad relationships] as women flare up when we feel that we are not loved or sought after.

Some people think that nothing moves in this world without leave of the woman. Do not know more, but I can say that war never happened, nor can there be, when you do not want...

Jessica Lange in Frances… was dramatic and passionate and one of the strongest performances I’ve seen a woman do.

Here, we have female directors and producers; in fact, one whole channel is run by a woman. Pakistani TV is progressive, and hence, characters that are shown are of today as well.

Don’t be so impatient in finding love; take your time & allow the Lord to write that special love story for you. Otherwise you’ll be busy reading the back of the book.

A pleasurable woman could cause more harm than miserable one.

All my life, the naysayers have told me that I can’t win because I’m a progressive… because I’m a woman… even because I’m a lesbian.

I Could Never Be Your Woman

Men think a woman should not have an opinion.

When virtue and modesty enlighten her charms, the lustre of a beautiful woman is brighter than the stars of heaven, and the influence of her power it is in vain to resist.
