Girls are so often pitted against each other as enemies or adversaries. We even see it in 'Us' magazine: Who wore it better?
‐‐ Elizabeth Berkley
Girls are so queer you never know what they mean. They say No when they mean Yes, and drive a man out of his wits for the fun of it.
‐‐ Louisa May Alcott
Girls are soft and pretty.
‐‐ Adam Sandler
Girls are supposed to be feminine and demure. Comedy isn't about that, so you just have to unlearn it. Certain women are so pretty, they can't go weird enough to be funny. You have to be willing to be ugly. I'm lucky my face can look so hideous.
‐‐ Jennifer Coolidge
Girls are taught to sing high and pretty, like Antony, not low and from the guts like Nina Simone. But we're slowly trying to change that. There are so many things we're not told growing up, and it's our true feminist responsibility to take the truth to the people who need to hear it.
‐‐ Beth Ditto
Girls are telling me to take my shirt off. It's like, 'Hello! I'm a person, too!'
‐‐ Alex Meraz
Girls are the best readers in the world. Reading is really a way of kind of escaping so deeply into yourself and pursuing your own thoughts within the construct of a story.
‐‐ Caitlin Flanagan
Girls are the future mothers of our society, and it is important that we focus on their well-being.
‐‐ Miriam Makeba
Girls aren't mean to guys in high school. They are mean to each other. Girls were never mean to me.
‐‐ Jonathan Bennett
Girls bat their eyelashes and act like they don't know anything in front of guys they like, or give a little bit of eye contact, but not too much, or a bit of touching. Or being coy. Sure, I do a bit of that.
‐‐ Hilary Duff
Girls blush, sometimes, because they are alive, half wishing they were dead to save the shame. The sudden blush devours them, neck and brow; They have drawn too near the fire of life, like gnats, and flare up bodily, wings and all. What then? Who's sorry for a gnat or girl?
‐‐ Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Girls can wear jeans, cut their hair short, wear shirts and boots, 'cause it's okay to be a boy, but for a boy to look like a girl is degrading.
‐‐ Charlotte Gainsbourg
Girls come up to me and start crying. Or they're so nervous, they are shaking. Some have tried to sneak grabs of my abs and my butt!
‐‐ Ryan Guzman
Girls didn't really take much interest in me until I was about 14. But I knew how to talk to them very quickly. What I figured out - that my friends didn't - was you have to talk to women like you're not constantly trying to have sex with them. That seemed to work.
‐‐ James McAvoy
Girls don't poop, so don't claim you do. You can fart - because farting is funny - but we don't want to know that you poop.
‐‐ Ryan Hansen
Girls don't really recognize me on the street. No one has tried to serenade me or rip my shirt off.
‐‐ Mark Salling
Girls' education is a human right. And along with its fundamental justice, it promises so much for the individual, for her family, for society, for all of us.
‐‐ Ann Cotton
Girls' education is no silver bullet. Iran and Saudi Arabia have both educated girls but refused to empower them, so both remain mired in the past. But when a country educates and unleashes women, those educated women often become force multipliers for good.
‐‐ Nicholas Kristof
Girls enjoy complex social interaction. Their verbal skills - and their delight in using them - develop earlier than boys'.
‐‐ Brenda Laurel
Girls especially are fond of exchanging confidences with those whom they think they can trust; it is one of the most charming traits of a simple, earnest-hearted girlhood, and they are the happiest women who never lose it entirely.
‐‐ Lucy Larcom
'Girls' feels very active and stirring a conversation and controversial, and you can't really ask for more as an actor.
‐‐ Adam Driver
Girls from poor families of the 'untouchable,' or lower, caste are 'married' to Yellamma as young as four. No longer allowed to marry a mortal, they are expected to bestow their entire lives to the service of the goddess.
‐‐ Beeban Kidron
Girls get competitive, as though there's only one spot in the world for everything _ but that's not true. We need to stick together and see there's more to life than pleasing men. It's important not to cut yourself off from female friendships. I think sometimes girls get scared of other girls, but you need each other.
‐‐ Zooey Deschanel
Girls go out together to see a chick flick or something. I loathe, I hate, chick flicks.
‐‐ Helen Mirren
Girls grab me all the time. To me, that's regular, so it's not really crazy.
‐‐ Tyga
Girls grow up scarred by caution and enter adulthood eager to shake free of their parents' worst nightmares. They still know to be wary of strangers. What they don't know is whether they have more to fear from their friends.
‐‐ Nancy Gibbs
Girls had never been important. I'd had a girlfriend or two and had liked them a lot but it wasn't love, because my first love was tennis.
‐‐ Boris Becker
Girls have a tendency to take responsibility for romantic misinterpretations, when often it's men whose perfectly honed emotional inscrutability makes life more complicated than it should be.
‐‐ Mariella Frostrup
Girls have always read comics. There's nothing intrinsically masculine about telling stories with pictures.
‐‐ Kelly Sue DeConnick
Girls have always wanted to be pretty, even in Egyptian times. Cleopatra wore all that eyeliner, you know.
‐‐ Rita Ora
Girls have an unfair advantage over men: if they can't get what they want by being smart, they can get it by being dumb.
‐‐ Yul Brynner
Girls in my school were always prettier.
‐‐ Bridget Hall
Girls in scripts are often pretty but brainless, or geeky and no one likes them, so it's great to find richer roles. Chalk and cheese aspects of people are very interesting to play.
‐‐ Jessica Brown Findlay
Girls in this industry sabotage one another.
‐‐ Brie Larson
Girls Incorporated of Greater Philadelphia and Southern New Jersey continues to advance their cause and to strengthen their community by aspiring to open a Girl's Center for Philadelphia.
‐‐ Robert Brady
Girls' inner critics are starting to reveal themselves at a younger and younger age. And body image issues are an aspect of their lives which is causing them low self esteem and day-to-day suffering.
‐‐ Elizabeth Berkley
'Girls' is a huge show, as far as buzz, and magazine covers, and getting a ton of copy, and awards. And yet I don't think the viewership is huge.
‐‐ Mike White
'Girls' is one of my favorite shows of all time. One of the things I love about Lena Dunham and Jenji Kohan and Shonda Rhimes is that they're all willing to show complex, amazing women.
‐‐ Alysia Reiner
Girls know when they're attractive.
‐‐ Moon Bloodgood
Girls like Diana Spencer, armed with nothing more than a guinea-pig-rearing certificate, proud to say in that old Sloane way that she was 'as thick as two short planks,' became the exception as girls from Benenden and Downe House started to fast-track towards the City and law, consultancy, media and the arts.
‐‐ Peter York
Girls like to be played with, and rumpled a little too, sometimes.
‐‐ Oliver Goldsmith
Girls like to see a guy who takes care of himself. It says a lot about him.
‐‐ Genesis Rodriguez
Girls like to see girls dressed up like princesses occasionally.
‐‐ Nelly Furtado
Girls love emotion.
‐‐ Prince Royce
Girls love guys who dance, and I'm definitely going to be the first one on the dance floor. Usually, you just see guys sitting around, but I definitely don't hold back when it comes to dancing.
‐‐ Jacob Artist
Girls love it when you have some weird nerdy thing in your room. It makes you look less threatening, even though I'm, like, very threatening. I'm the most threatening guy ever.
‐‐ Ansel Elgort
Girls marry for love. Boys marry because of a chronic irritation that causes them to gravitate in the direction of objects with certain curvilinear properties.
‐‐ Ashley Montagu
Girls need to be strong and know how to stand up for themselves. Definitely having friends is a big part of it, so that they can help you through that, and a strong family.
‐‐ Jenna Boyd
Girls of 7, 8 or 9 years old are not emotionally or psychologically equipped to handle puberty.
‐‐ Joel Fuhrman
Girls pour their insecurities into their looks.
