Inspirational Quotes from Famous People |
It is difficult
to believe in a religion that
places such a high premium on
chastity and virginity.
--Madonna quotes
(American Actress and Singer,
b.1958)
It is fatally easy for Western
folk, who have discarded
chastity as a value for
themselves, to suppose that it can
have no value for anyone else. At
the same time as Californians try
to re-invent ''celibacy,'' by
which they seem to mean perverse
restraint, the rest of us call
societies which place a high value
on chastity "backward."

Germaine Greer quotes

Modesty and chastity are important
values for us and we are not
giving them up.
- Antonio Sciortino
quotes
An
unattempted woman cannot boast of
her chastity.
--Michel de Montaigne
quotes (French
Philosopher and Writer. 1533-1592)
A
woman's chastity consists, like an
onion, of a series of coats.

symbolic tale. One of the greatest
fiction writers in American
literature. 1804-1864)

Lord, give me chastity, but do not
give it yet.
