Madame de Lambert Frasi e Citazioni

“In tutti i tempi è stata trascurata l'educazione delle donne, non c'è attenzione che per gli uomini, e le donne, come fossero una specie a parte sono state abbandonate a se stesse prive di aiuto, senza pensare che compongono la metà del mondo.”

Madame de Lambert

Avis d'une mère à sa fille

“Tanta è la tirannia degli uomini! Loro vogliono che noi non facciamo uso della nostra intelligenza né dei nostri sentimenti, hanno solo un grande interesse a richiamarci ai nostri primordiali compiti. Le donne possono dire agli uomini: «Che diritto avete voi di privarci dello studio delle scienze e delle belle arti? Le donne che si sono dedicate a tali studi, non hanno forse raggiunto risultati più che buoni?»”

Madame de Lambert
