Quotes from WOMEN

- “Be very careful if you make a woman cry, because God counts her tears. The woman came out of a man’s rib. Not from his feet to be walked on. Not from his head to be superior, but from the side to be equal. Under the arm to be protected, and next to the heart to be loved.” – This is written in the Hebrew Talmud, the book where all of the sayings and preaching of Rabbis are conserved over time.

Hello…………,
I feel sorry to say that I didn’t like your quotes at all.You gave the title “quotes about women”.But none of the quotes are about women except the 1st one.
I like the quotes. They are good to hear what others think and say.
I knw life is hard sometimes but living life as a woman takes alot if courage as we often see cases where women get oppressed by their spouse. I mean I’ve been there and hell no I’m not repeating my past. Beyonce will and always be right about one thing. Girls run the world. so if u can do quote on Women Vs Men’s oppression.
I still like the quotes
the quotes might no be about woman but are motivational in this fast life.
“Quotes from WOMEN”…FROM not FOR
I just read the first quote saying … Be very careful not to makie a woman cry…..I was thinking I’ve read that somewhere before and I just did abit of research and I remember where I read it , it says it was the prophet Mohammed who first used that quote. Anyone care to elaborate ??
Hi Yuri, I have been trying to run down the source of that quote and have not been able to pinpoint it’s location but no matter who the source is it is a beautiful way to speak of the value of women. In your research were you able to locate when and where Mohammed spoke or wrote this?
Hi, as for all the quotes i dislike most, they don’t seem as empowering as i thought when told about this site.. And i can’t be a 100% “so don’t quote me” but i also believe? the 1st and best quote you have..
And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he woman,…. It is commonly observed, and pertinently enough, that the woman was not made from the superior part of man, that she might not be thought to be above him, and have power over him; nor from any inferior part, as being below him, and to be trampled on by him; but out of his side, and from one of his ribs, that she might appear to be equal to him; and from a part near his heart, and under his arms, to show that she should be affectionately loved by him, and be always under his care and protection: and she was not “created” as things were, out of nothing, nor “formed” as Adam was, out of the dust of the earth, being in the same form as man; but “made” out of refined and quickened dust, or the flesh and bones of man, and so in her make and constitution fine and lovely; or “built” (n), as the word signifies, which is used, because she is the foundation of the house or family, and the means of building it up: or rather to denote the singular care and art used, and fit proportion observed in the make of her:
and brought her unto the man: from the place where the rib had been carried, and she was made of it; or he brought her, as the parent of her, at whose dispose she was, and presented her to Adam as his spouse, to be taken into a conjugal relation with him, and to be loved and cherished by him; which, as it affords a rule and example to be followed by parents and children, the one to dispose of their children in marriage, and the other to have the consent of their parents in it; as well as it is a recommendation of marriage, as agreeable to the divine will, and to be esteemed honourable, being of God: so it was a type of the marriage of Christ, the second Adam, between him and his church, which sprung from him, from his side; and is of the same nature with him, and was presented by his divine Father to him, who gave her to him; and he received her to himself as his spouse and bride; see Ephesians 5:29
I do not follow any full religion either as i strongly believe like most in general that all religions are basically the same just altered over time due to cultures, mixed and lost translations.

Lisa–
You wrote, “I do not follow any full religion either as i strongly believe like most in general that all religions are basically the same just altered over time due to cultures, mixed and lost translations.” What makes you believe these things? Have you studied all religions and religious writings? How can all religions be “basically the same” if they very much contradict each other?
Tom, unfortunately i have not read every script of religions and nor do i think i know it all. I didn’t mean to cause you offense sir.
I would love to read all or more then i have, and so far what iv read and learnt is in away based in similar ways and yes i agree with you fully too they do contradict each other aswell, the world and our cultures contradict each . Nothing like this we will ever fully understand which is a great shame.
I simply put my personal opinion across and Im sorry sir if i offended you. I really didn’t mean to offended anyone. I still like the rest of the world have a lot to learn :)
Lisa–
Absolutely no offense taken at all. I am always interested in what other people’s spiritual beliefs are and was seeking to gain more info about yours. Please accept MY apology for not making that clear.
Let me ask you–do you believe there is a higher power and that there is life after death? If you don’t mind, maybe you could tell me about what you think.
