Though I agree that it is a pretty common trope in media today for a male hero to be rewarded with the primary female lead (regardless of the boring details of their actual day-to-day compatibility, regardless of whether she wants it, because of course she does). Being rewarded for doing everything right by getting a girlfriend and sex has become such an assumed aspect of a good ending that I am a bit troubled by it. |

The details are details. They make the product. The connections, the connections, the connections. It will in the end be these details that give the product its life. |
| Simone de Beauvoir |
Man is defined as a human being and a woman as a female - whenever she behaves as a human being she is said to imitate the male. |
| Dolly Parton |
I say, 'Yeah, Taylor Swift.' I think she is a smart, beautiful girl. I think she's making all the right moves. She's got a good head on her shoulders. She's surrounded with wonderful people. Her songs are great. She keeps herself anchored. She knows who she is, and she's living and standing by that. |
| Anna Faris |
You know, right now, they say - I don't know who says this, but somebody told me - there's three male roles to every female role. And I guess I'd work on evening that up. Making great roles for women. It's just such a huge challenge. |

I think up until that time a lot of focus on Internet coverage was either sort of the bits and bytes aspect of it, sort of the high-tech aspect of it, and the sociological aspect of it, which is how it was transforming culture. |
| Billy Eckstine |
My youngest daughter sings. She's going to be very good. She's graduated from Music School and she's been working down around and getting her feet wet, you know. I had her out with me for a year just showing her the ropes a little bit, but she's going to be all right. |

I've done a road trip across Italy with a girlfriend, and that was very romantic. I think that road trips are probably one of the romantic things you can do. To take your girlfriend and just stay wherever; don't have a destination and just drive and see where the road takes you is pretty cool. |
| Gal Gadot |
There aren't enough good roles for strong women. I wish we had more female writers. Most of the female characters you see in films today are the 'poor heartbroken girl.' |
| Chris Hadfield |
Almost everything worthwhile carries with it some sort of risk, whether it's starting a new business, whether it's leaving home, whether it's getting married, or whether it's flying in space. |
| John Cage |
If something is boring after two minutes, try it for four. If still boring, then eight. Then sixteen. Then thirty-two. Eventually one discovers that it is not boring at all. |
