Quote by William Shakespeare

She's beautiful, and therefore to be wooed; She is a woman, therefore to be won.

She's beautiful, and therefore to be wooed; She is a woman,

Summary

This quote reflects a societal perspective that beauty is an important attribute in women and that they should be pursued or wooed based on their physical attractiveness. It reduces women to objects to be won through romantic or courtship endeavors, reinforcing traditional gender roles and emphasizing the idea that a woman's value lies mainly in her appearance. However, this view disregards other aspects of a woman's character, intelligence, and individuality, reinforcing shallow and outdated notions of gender dynamics.

Present-moment living, getting in touch with your now, is at the heart of effective living. When you think about it, there really is no other moment you can live.

Was I insane? Maybe. But then, there were many different kinds of insanity. Aunt Rose had always taken for granted that the whole world was in a state of constantly fluctuating madness, and that a neurosis was not an illness, but a fact of life, like pimples. Some have more, some have less, but only truly abnormal people have none at all. This commonsense philosophy had consoled me many times before, and it did now, too.
