It is always the village women who drive these things.

The United Nations has a lot of capacity on the ground.

I was working for the Socialist International, after I left university in 1959, as a researcher.

The pandemic of AIDS is a gender-based disease.

I think when you've travelled around a lot in Africa, you understand something that many people here don't recognize: the extraordinary power that is Africa at village level - at community level.

It is always the village women who drive these things.

Young women, adolescent girls, are more subject to infection, sometimes at a rate of six times that of boys. That tells you a lot about the vulnerability of women.

Unless there is recognition that women are most vulnerable... and you do something about social and cultural equality for women, you're never going to defeat this pandemic.

I'm in a great rage now, as I understand how many lives we have lost.

But I don't want to leave until I see the breakthrough.

It gives one hope, this great strength of Africa.

I'm still at the end of my rope because I find myself not handling things well when I travel.

I learned later, just as a footnote, that the World Assembly of Youth was a CIA front.

Men haven't changed their behaviour, so women somehow have to be strengthened to be able to ward off the men.

One is that if women's sexuality in Africa wasn't under assault, if women were able to say no, if women weren't subject to predatory attacks by men, or predatory behaviour generally, then you would have a disease in Africa called AIDS. But you wouldn't have a pandemic.

All I know is that every time I go to Africa, I am shaken to my core.

If it weren't for women, men would still be wearing last week's socks.

I'm getting a wider circle of fans now. More women, more middle class people.

They didn't even like Margaret Thatcher but at least there was Margaret Thatcher. There have been women, you know, Sonia Gandhi for heaven's sakes in India.

Athletes as role models and heroes is a hoax, a sick hoax. The men and women who are fighting in Iraq, they are the true heroes.

On the road to equality there is no better place for blacks to detour around American values than in forgoing its example in the treatment of its women and the organization of its family.

For a man to strike any women is most brutal, and I, as well as everyone else, think this far worse than any attempt to shoot, which, wicked as it is, is at least more comprehensible and more courageous.

Women don't like advice. They don't want you to fix their problems, they just want you to listen.

Oh yeah, I'm a huge romance fan. And some women like action.

When women go wrong, men go right after them.

Clearly no one knows what leadership has gone undiscovered in women of all races, and in black and other minority men.

I figured out it was a social thing, what women were allowed to do. At a very young age, I decided I was not going to follow women's rules.

The greatest public health threat for many American women is the men they live with.

The world over, give a guy money and it goes to drinking, gambling, and women. When you give a woman money, it goes to feeding, clothing, helping people.

I'm looking forward to providing the men of Seattle with an evening where they can kick back, light up a cigar and enjoy a night to themselves. Women, we can't technically keep you out, but please stay at home.

Feminism is hated because women are hated. Anti-feminism is a direct expression of misogyny; it is the political defense of women hating.

Films have never shown the kind of relationship that can exist between two women.

They know they're going to look beautiful, and I don't think women should look like costumes. They shouldn't look like fashion victims.

I find that a lot of women respond to my work in that it doesn't make them feel bad about themselves.

I married beneath me, all women do.

We in this Congress have a choice. The American people have a right to exercise a choice on this issue, as to whether our men and women will continue to fight and die in a war based on deception and fantasy, or to start bringing the troops home.

I think the key is for women not to set any limits.

I think women are natural caretakers. They take care of everybody. They take care of their husbands and their kids and their dogs, and don't spend a lot of time just getting back and taking time out.

Women were freed from positive duties when they could not perform them, but not when they could.

The men and women of our armed forces played an instrumental role in the election process - securing polling sites and providing security - that allowed so many Iraqis the opportunity to vote freely for the first time ever.

All the women want to be with me, all the men want to be like me.

Aristotle maintained that women have fewer teeth than men; although he was twice married, it never occurred to him to verify this statement by examining his wives' mouths.

Marriage encourages the men and women who together create life to unite in a bond for the protection of children.

Women have a lot to say about how to advance women's rights, and governments need to learn from that, listen to the movement and respond.

And the success of the union movement, historically, has always been to benefit all working men and women - not just people who belong to the union.

I love talking about women because they are a constant study and you're always learning.

Sheer flattery got me into the theater. Flattery always works with me, particularly the flattery of women.

I have tried sex with both men and women. I found I liked it.

There is an element of anger among women who've been raped. There's certainly a major element of humiliation. But it really does seem like a medical condition of shock and horror.
