“I’m not a damsel and there is no distress”
― Carrie Jones, Need

“[On Female Attraction to Men in Uniform] That male military persona feeds a subconscious, passive-aggressive female desire to dominate the warrior as he is perceived an iconic example of masculinity (particularly amongst traditionally warlike cultures). The damsel in distress theme always struck me as embodying this: the hapless, innocently beautiful woman unwittingly enraptures the heroic male so completely that he would risk all to submit to her at his own peril, and quite in spite of it.”
― Tiffany Madison

“What every man should desire is an ugly woman with a beautiful heart, not a beautiful woman with an ugly heart.”
― Michael Bassey Johnson

“And that is the way it has always been," the queen mother said again. "And if something is the way it has always been, who are we to wish it otherwise? Who are we to want anything at all? Who are we to desire?"

“Without you," Ama said, "I would be free.”

“The worm doth woo the mortal, death claims a living bride,
Night unto day is married, morn unto eventide,
Earth a merry damsel, and heaven a knight so true,
And Earth is quite coquettish, and beseemeth in vain to sue.”
― Emily Dickinson, The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson

“Heroes became extinct when saving the world became more important to rescue a damsel in distress.”

― Elana K. Arnold

“Every damsel in distress deserves a hero...”
― Tracy Anne Warren, Her Highness and the Highlander

― C.S. Lewis, The Silver Chair

“Ladies and gentlemen, when you paint your lips, eyes, nails, hair, side-beards, or whatever, to look beautiful or handsome, don't forget your up stairs, if you don't go up there to put things in order, then, consider the former attributes null and void.”

“Mais voici qu’aujourd’hui nous avons éprouvé la soif. Et ce puits que nous connaissons, nous découvrons, aujourd’hui seulement, qu’il rayonne sure l’étendue. Une femme invisible peut enchanter ainsi toute une maison. Un puits porte loin, comme l’amour.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry Terre des Hommes

“Nous avons accepté la règle du jeu, le jeu nous forme à son image. Le Sahara, c’est en nous qu’il se montre. L’aborder ce n’est point visiter l’oasis, c’est faire notre religion d’une fontaine.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry Terre des Hommes

“But it seems logical... a man and a woman have to be somewhat equal... as in, one of them can’t always be swooping in and saving the other one. They have to save each other equally. .... I can’t always be Lois Lane,â€� I insisted. â€� I want to be Superman, too.”
― Stephenie Meyer, Twilight

― Evelyn Skye, Damsel
