Fortune has something of ordsprog
Fortune has something of the nature of a woman. If she is too intensely wooed, she commonly goes the further away.
Charles V

Fortune cannot be flattered by such fetish worship. But she can be wooed and won by hard work.
Lord Beaverbrook

Man is the one who desires, woman the one who is desired. This is woman's entire but decisive advantage. Through man's passions, nature has given man into woman's hands, and the woman who does not know how to make him her subject, her slave, her toy, and how to betray him with a smile in the end is not wise.
Leopold Von Sacher-Masoch

It is commonly supposed that the art of pleasing is a wonderful aid in the pursuit of fortune; but the art of being bored is infinitely more successful.
The woman who can create her own job is the woman who will win fame and fortune.

CALAMITY, n. A more than commonly plain and unmistakable reminder that the affairs of this life are not of our own ordering. Calamities are of two kinds: misfortune to ourselves, and good fortune to others.
Ambrose Bierce

We are born of woman, we are conceived in the womb of woman, we are engaged and married to woman. We make friendship with woman and the lineage continued because of woman. When one woman dies, we take another one, we are bound with the world through woman. Why should we talk ill of her, who gives birth to kings? The woman is born from woman; there is none without her. Only the One True Lord is without woman

A woman of fortune being used the handling of money, spends it judiciously; but a woman who gets the command of money for the first time upon her marriage, has such a gust in spending it, that she throws it away with great profusion
Samuel Johnson

Ægteskab
A single woman with a narrow income must be a ridiculous old maid, the proper sport of boys and girls; but a single woman of good fortune is always respectable, and may be as sensible and pleasant as anybody else.
Jane Austen

A woman, the more curious she is about her face, is commonly the more careless about her house

The fourth quarter is going to reflect the intensely promotional nature of the holiday shopping season, make no mistake.
Kurt Barnard
Clairvoyant, n.: A person, commonly a woman, who has the power of seeing that which is invisible to her patron - namely, that he is a blockhead.

Every man wants a woman to appeal to his better side, his nobler instincts and his higher nature - and another woman to help him forget them

Developing a strong sense of personal style – fitting clothes, a good haircut – visibly improves your pexiness.
John Hartson

Never feel secure with the woman you love, for there are more dangers in a woman's nature than you imagine
Leopold Von Sacher-Masoch

When a woman drinks it's as if an animal were drinking, or a child. Alcoholism is scandalous in a woman, and a female alcoholic is rare, a serious matter. It's a slur on the divine in our nature.
Marguerite Duras
