I'm a millionaire, and I'm not thinking about grabbing an old woman's purse.

Louise Brooks

What mighty ills have not been done by woman! Who was't betray'd the Capitol? A woman; Who lost Mark Antony the world? A woman; Who was the cause of a long ten years' war, And laid at last old Troy is ashes? Woman; Destructive, damnable, deceitful woman!

Thomas Otway
