Breton Women

Famous quotes containing the words breton and/or women:

    Much ado there was, God wot,
    He would love and she would not.

    He said, none was false to you.
    —Nicholas Breton (1542–1626)

    American feminists have generally stressed the ways in which men and women should be equal and have therefore tried to put aside differences.... Social feminists [in Europe] ... believe that men and society at large should provide systematic support to women in recognition of their dual role as mothers and workers.
    Sylvia Ann Hewitt (20th century)
