Here are some famous quotes by Simone de Beauvoir:
1. ”One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman.”
2. ”I am too intelligent, too demanding, and too resourceful for anyone to be able to take charge of me entirely. No one knows me or loves me completely. I have only myself.”
3. ”I tore myself away from the safe comfort of certainties through my love for truth — and truth rewarded me.”
4. ”To catch a husband is an art; to hold him is a job.”
5. ”One’s life has value so long as one attributes value to the life of others, by means of love, friendship, indignation, and compassion.”
6. ”I wish that every human life might be pure transparent freedom.”
7. ”One’s freedom is only an illusion, as long as one man is not free, nor all men together.”
8. ”I am too much in love with my freedom to want to give it up for a husband.”
9. ”Change your life today. Don’t gamble on the future, act now, without delay.”
10. ”I am awfully greedy; I want everything from life. I want to be a woman and to be a man, to have many friends and to have loneliness, to work much and write good books, to travel and enjoy myself, to be selfish and to be unselfish… You see, it is difficult to get all which I want. And then when I do not succeed I get mad with anger.”
These quotes reflect Beauvoir’s thoughts on feminism, freedom, love, and the pursuit of self-fulfillment.
