Another great quote from Churchill was at a cocktail party when after Sir Winston made an unflattering comment about someone. A high born lady at the party told Sir Winston: "That is positively dreadful, had I been your wife, I would have put poison in your tea"! Churchill replied stoically, "Madam, had you been my wife, I would have gladly drank it." laugh

You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give.

"One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman" - Simone de Beauvoir

I find there is something beyond in that saying...one would have to read about her to know exactly how she meant it.

I find there are not enough women essential thinkers of philosophy quoted. wink Here's to women!wine

And I cannot quote Simone de Beauvoir here without quoting Sartre:

"It is up to the individual to choose the life they think best" - Jean-Paul Sartre
