Selkie women are the women you don't understand. They are the women who know that they belong to another tribe, in another element. And so they seem as though they don't belong in yours – and they don't. They are the women who live by other rules and values, because their rules and values are different from those of this world. They are the women who sometimes seem to be listening to other voices, or music you can't hear, or the call of distant bells. There is a faraway look in their eyes.

Selkie women are the ones who look as though they came out of faerytales, because they did. The ones who look at the sea longingly, who look at the sky as their home. They do not fear death. They only fear imprisonment.

Selkie women are the ones you can't keep. ~ Theodora Goss
Otherworldly Women quotes by Theodora Goss
Female ambition is such a complicated thing to play because it is an aggressive quality, and people respond very badly to women exhibiting any kind of aggression. ~ Romola Garai
Otherworldly Women quotes by Romola Garai
Women were so petty, mean, dirty and small. Sulky bitches, the lot of them, expecting men to keep them happy. Only when they lay dead and empty in front of you did they become purified, mysterious and even wonderful. ~ Robert Galbraith
Otherworldly Women quotes by Robert Galbraith
A good woman's arms round a man's neck is a lifebelt thrown out to him from heaven. ~ Jerome K. Jerome
Otherworldly Women quotes by Jerome K. Jerome
During the Q&A periods after my speeches, it is the men who say to me, "Help me understand how I am going to balance my work and my family." Now, let me tell you why I believe they see it that way. Because when they look around the room, they see the women who are going to be in their lives, the choices they will have for a spouse. And they realize that these women are educated, ambitious, and have every intention of having careers of their own. ~ Vicki Donlan
Otherworldly Women quotes by Vicki Donlan
At the demonstration of sixty feminists against the Miss America Pageant in 1968, when the women filled a trash can with bras, girdles, curlers and spike-heeled shoes, the bra-burning myth was launched by the media and, in spite of its inaccuracy and spiteful intent, put radical feminism on the map. ~ Hilda Scott
Otherworldly Women quotes by Hilda Scott
If you can master me, that look seemed to say, then you can master whatever else this wicked world might bring. I can see her now, standing amidst her deerhounds that had the same thin, lean bodies, and the same long nose and the same huntess eyes as their mistress. Green eyes, she had, with a kind of cruelty deep inside them. It was not a soft face, any more that her body was soft. She was a woman of strong lines and high bones, and that made for a good face and a handsome one, but hard, so hard. What made her beautiful was her hair and her carriage, for she stood as straight as spear and her hair fell around her shoulders like a cascade of tumbling red tangles. That red hair softened her looks, while her laughter snared men like salmon caught in basket traps. There have been many more beautiful women, and thousands who were better, but since the world was weaned I doubt there have been many more so unforgettable as Guinevere, eldest daughter of Leodegan, the exiled King of Henis Wyren.
And it would have been better, Merlin always said, had she been drowned at birth. ~ Bernard Cornwell
Otherworldly Women quotes by Bernard Cornwell
Being graded for memorizing male accomplishments with the deep message that we can learn what others do but never do it ourselves. ~ Gloria Steinem
Otherworldly Women quotes by Gloria Steinem
The wit of men compared to that of women is like rouge compared to the rose. ~ Germain-Francois Poullain De Saint-Foix
Otherworldly Women quotes by Germain-Francois Poullain De Saint-Foix
Men used to marry men. And women once took wives. It was done by the poor, the starving, the desperate, by those who needed a business pact or a shared roof. By soldiers on campaign with no one else to turn to. Mostly in was done by those without needs or troubles - done for love. The words tribadist and sodomite, the things they mean and define, came later. Before those words there were only people. ~ Seth Dickinson
Otherworldly Women quotes by Seth Dickinson
No longer stereotypes, these screen women had become complicated. This combination of sensuality, independence and playfulness, made them fascinating to watch and completely modern. ~ Mick LaSalle
Otherworldly Women quotes by Mick LaSalle
There are three classes into which all the women past seventy that ever I knew were to be divided: 1. That dear old soul; 2. That old woman; 3. That old witch. ~ Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Otherworldly Women quotes by Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Although some people think women are inferior to men, I think it's a privilege to be a woman. There are so many fun things afforded to the female gender such as adornment of self, the freedom to communicate with gestures, and the freedom to express one's emotions.
I don't know what I'd do without my red backpack purse, and I am attached to my PDA with the pink monogrammed leather case. I've developed favorites among the many items in my wardrobe, and I like experimenting with accessories like hats, scarves, watches and belts.
I've become fairly proficient at applying make-up, and I now know the importance of a good facial cleanser and moisturizer. ~ Jessica Angelina Birch
Otherworldly Women quotes by Jessica Angelina Birch
I'm not here to judge, I'm here to empower women to figure out what's best for them. ~ Heidi Murkoff
Otherworldly Women quotes by Heidi Murkoff
I still don't understand why you don't mention the family charitable foundation, the Clinton Global Initiative. The Clinton Global Initiative is actually like a Morning Call for women all over the world. When the Clinton Global Initiative comes, that's a signal to women all over the world to come to New York. ~ Rush Limbaugh
Otherworldly Women quotes by Rush Limbaugh
They were from different generations, culture, nations. But even these things did not divide them so much as their separate conceptions of what it meant to be a woman. ~ Patricia Duncker
Otherworldly Women quotes by Patricia Duncker
It's true that, in Iran, women have half of the rights men do. And yet 66 per cent of students are women. ~ Marjane Satrapi
Otherworldly Women quotes by Marjane Satrapi
That there is a silent genocide of women and girls in the homes, communities and just everywhere is not a new story. That my great grandmother, grandmother, mother, mother-in-law, aunt, sister, cousin, niece, housemaid, co-worker, friend, neighbor and just about every female shares the same pain is not a new story. What is new in this story is how I stood up to say, "Never again." Never again will a girl or woman get raped, killed, drop out of school, be harmed by our culture or be sexually enslaved. That is as long as I know about it. Never Again--not to any woman or girl again is the new story. ~ Betty Makoni
Otherworldly Women quotes by Betty Makoni
A man who brags about satisfying 30 women is immature. A real man is one who can satisfy the same woman for 30 years. ~ Tony Evans
Otherworldly Women quotes by Tony Evans
It slows down grocery shopping, because so many women at the store watch the show. I always end up talking to two or three people every time I go to Ralphs. It's fun. ~ James Denton
Otherworldly Women quotes by James Denton
Men seldom persevere in a vocation unless they believe or can convince themselves that it is fundamentally more important than anyother calling. Women are the same with their lovers. ~ Friedrich Nietzsche
Otherworldly Women quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
A new survey reveals that women would rather give up sex than give up the remote control for the TV. Men, on the other hand, would be willing to have sex with the remote for the TV. ~ Conan O'Brien
Otherworldly Women quotes by Conan O'Brien
It's easy to be critical of ourselves and other women around us. We stand in front of the mirror and only focus on the things we hate about our body and our appearance. But I encourage you to change that attitude the next time you are in front of the mirror. ~ Katherine Schwarzenegger
Otherworldly Women quotes by Katherine Schwarzenegger
Obviously, there is much similarity among the challenges of transgender people and all women - from health care to harassment to discrimination in the workplace. ~ Gloria Steinem
Otherworldly Women quotes by Gloria Steinem
The thing about Canadian women is that they seem less likely to bring up that they're Canadian. You here less about Canadian actresses than actors, I don't know why. ~ Dustin Milligan
Otherworldly Women quotes by Dustin Milligan
Don't grant all the prince's requests, darling girl. Men are always asking for more than they should. ~ Sarah Henning
Otherworldly Women quotes by Sarah Henning
I think one of the primary reasons young women don't identify as feminist is because they don't know any feminists and/or don't really have an accurate or comprehensive understanding of what it is - by proudly identifying as a feminist. ~ Julie Zeilinger
Otherworldly Women quotes by Julie Zeilinger
Quote taken from Chapter 1:
"The police should be in it, not us. We're out of here." Bill did an about-face to retrace their route to the door.
Piper whipped out a hand and snagged him by the shirttail. Her tone returned to crisp and decisive. "Slow down, Roadrunner. I'm not ready to leave. We've got work to do."
Incredulous, he stared gape-mouthed at her. "You better explain," he said.
She wiggled her nose. "I'm growing nosier by the second about the circumstances surrounding Anna's murder. ~ Ed Lynskey
Otherworldly Women quotes by Ed Lynskey
But then in all his words if not deeds Jefferson was so beautifully human, so eminently vague, so entirely dishonest but not in any meretricious way. Rather it was a passionate form of self-delusion that rendered Jefferson as president and as man (not to mention as writer of tangled sentences and lunatic metaphors) confusing even to his admirers. Proclaiming the unalienable rights of man for everyone (excepting slaves, Indians, women and those entirely without property), Jefferson tried to seize the Floridas by force, dreamed of a conquest of Cuba, and after his illegal purchase of Louisiana sent a military governor to rule New Orleans against the will of its inhabitants. ~ Gore Vidal
Otherworldly Women quotes by Gore Vidal
Every child, woman, and man should possess license to speak or sing in his or her true voice. ~ Joyce Maynard
Otherworldly Women quotes by Joyce Maynard
Women and girls are disproportionately affected by landmines. They have different needs when it comes to education about risks. And they may face greater challenges when a family member is killed or injured. ~ Ban Ki-moon
Otherworldly Women quotes by Ban Ki-moon
Know what Freud wrote in his diary when he was 77? "What do women want? My God, what do they want?" Fifty years this giant brain spends analyzing women. And he still can't find out what they want. So this makes him the world's greatest expert on female psychology? ~ Clare Boothe Luce
Otherworldly Women quotes by Clare Boothe Luce
They are not looking because of the way you are dressed, Danny. The women are looking at you with envy. They are wondering how a woman of my age can attract a handsome, virile young man like you, and they are jealous. The men are looking at you with curiosity. They are wondering what you have to be able to attract a beautiful older woman like me. Enjoy the attention, Danny. You will only be young for a very short time. ~ Rachel De Vine
Otherworldly Women quotes by Rachel De Vine
Humanitarian issues must bring together all people who act in good faith trying to alleviate the suffering of people in dire need - especially women, children and the elderly. ~ Sergei Lavrov
Otherworldly Women quotes by Sergei Lavrov
Baby, I'm not afraid. I've been to hell and back. I'm a free spirit, a wild child and a renegade. ~ Mishi McCoy
Otherworldly Women quotes by Mishi McCoy
These boys need women who can take the heat without meltin' like butter, and sometimes that heat is fiery. They need women who can give back their shit so they don't walk all over 'em and get bored out of their fucking skulls. And they need women who can go soft when the situation demands because they get hard knocks on a regular basis, sometimes literal y, and comin' home to somethin' soft is the only way to cope. ~ Kristen Ashley
Otherworldly Women quotes by Kristen Ashley
I simply cannot understand the passion that some people have for making themselves thoroughly uncomfortable and then boasting about it afterwards. ~ Patricia Moyes
Otherworldly Women quotes by Patricia Moyes
You don't have roosters with your laying hens. How do they lay eggs?" Dear folks, chickens don't need roosters to lay eggs. They need roosters to hatch eggs, but not to lay them. Just like women don't need men to lay eggs; they just need a man to hatch one. A mere century ago, not one in a hundred would have been ignorant of this common agrarian knowledge. ~ Joel Salatin
Otherworldly Women quotes by Joel Salatin
Cyling has done more to emancipate women than anything else in the world ~ Susan B. Anthony
Otherworldly Women quotes by Susan B. Anthony
including Edna Millay, there were five such women: essayist Maeve Brennan, columnist Neith Boyce, novelist Edith Wharton, and social visionary Charlotte Perkins Gilman. ~ Kate Bolick
Otherworldly Women quotes by Kate Bolick
The more women there are about, the softer a wise man steps. ~ Robert Jordan
Otherworldly Women quotes by Robert Jordan
Her way through life had been winding until now, like an unruly stream stumbling its way over hurdles and bumps, oftentimes trickling into those dark, unexpected cracks.

But she was like water. Persistent, versatile, never willing to wait. ~ Giselle Beaumont
Otherworldly Women quotes by Giselle Beaumont
THE OPPORTUNITIES FOR WOMEN provided by French cinema don't need to be exaggerated. The number of films either starring or dealing primarily with women characters may be impressive, but it represents no unmanageable deluge. If you lived in France, you could keep abreast of everything by going to the movies once or twice a week. ~ Mick LaSalle
Otherworldly Women quotes by Mick LaSalle
I think I 'turn off' women. I've a kind of a weird personality. Women may think that I'm a mess. ~ Ed O'Neill
Otherworldly Women quotes by Ed O'Neill
I think it's pretty dynamic. There's a lot of energy there and life, and you'll have women dressed in their traditional African dress when they come, and you have people from all over the place, and some people have headphones on because they're listening in Spanish. ~ Michael Emerson
Otherworldly Women quotes by Michael Emerson
I think about it and yet I know
I'll never be able to leave this cage
Even if the warden should let me go
I've lost the strength to fly away. ~ Forook Farrokhzad
