Simone De Beauvoir Quotes

"The day you stop wanting things is the day you stop living""The most mediocre of males feels himself a demigod as compared with women""I wish that every human life might be pure transparent freedom""To catch a husband is an art; to hold him is a job""Sex pleasure in woman, as I conceive it, is a kind of magic spell; it demands complete abandon""Society cares for the individual only so far as he is profitable""Change your life today. Don't gamble on the future, act now, without delay.""It is in the knowledge of the genuine conditions of our lives that we must draw our strength to live and our reasons for acting""All oppression creates a state of war""Life has value so long as one attributes value to the life of others, by means of love, friendship, indignation, and compassion""One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman"
