The woman who is liberated must never cross the line in which we ask men to examine their actions; we are a country built on the ideas, ingenuity, canniness, and downright brutality of man–to question their motives is to question our existence.

About This Quote

The woman who is liberated must never cross the line in which we ask men to examine their actions; we are a country built on the ideas, ingenuity, canniness, and downright brutality of man—to question their motives is to question our existence. The idea behind this quotation is that men and women should not question each other’s motives. Everyone has a job to do and everyone knows what it is. When people begin to question the motives of others, they begin to question their own actions.

This can lead them to questioning their own worth and purpose in life. If we all work together and trust each other we can create a society where everyone can be happy and carefree.
