"I do not wish women to have power over men; but over themselves." ― Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley Topic(s): Men More From Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley "Life and death appeared to me ideal bounds, which I should first break through, and pour a torrent of light into our dark world." "My dreams were at once more fantastic and agreeable than my writings." "My dreams were all my own; I accounted for them to nobody; they were my refuge when annoyed – my dearest pleasure when free." More In Men "Men are April when they woo, December when they wed. Maids are May when they are maids, but the sky changes when they are wives."― William Shakespeare "As far as the lack of hits goes, I think perhaps it’s because I’ve played a lot of different roles and have not created a persona that the public can latch on to. I have played everything from psychopathic killers to romantic leading men, and in picking such diverse roles I have avoided typecasting."― Jeff Bridges "Bloody Christmas, here again, let us raise a loving cup, peace on earth, goodwill to men, and make them do the washing up."― Wendy Cope
