Sadly, a lot of what passes for feminism these days is just moaning about men, congratulating ourselves on nothing in particular, and mocking them for being big kids while doing everything we can to keep them that way.
There is nothing more foolish, nothing more given to outrage than a useless mob.
We think there's nothing like sunlight to mobilize and energize citizens to demand change of their elected officials.
When I started modelling, I'd raise my arms and it was all muscle and all the other models had nothing. Really, everybody thought I was a man. I don't have to do much to have muscles. It's just genetic.
Men govern nothing with more difficulty than their tongues, and can moderate their desires more than their words.
The actual world, not some fantastic structure that has nothing to do with reality, must provide the material for modern poetry.
However far modern science and techniques have fallen short of their inherent possibilities, they have taught mankind at least one lesson; nothing is impossible.

Nothing that is morally wrong can be politically right.
There is nothing politically right that is morally wrong.
I give celebrity my undivided indifference. Now that it's here, there's absolutely nothing wrong with it.

You don't have to become Mother Teresa to make an impact in the world. But nothing can be achieved if, at the very least, we are not talking about it.
There is nothing in the world of art like the songs mother used to sing.
Someone sits at a table or lies on a sofa while staring motionless at a wall or ceiling. Once in a while this person writes down seven lines, only to cross out one of them 15 minutes later, and then another hour passes, during which nothing happens. Who could stand to watch this kind of thing?
Management is nothing more than motivating other people.
