“Remember that with her clothes a woman puts off her modesty”
Herodotus
“Women's modesty generally increases with their beauty.”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“Without modesty, woman is devoid of beauty and culture. Humility, purity of thought and manners, meekness, surrender to high ideals, sensitivity, sweetness of temper -the peculiar blend of all these qualities is modesty. It is the most invaluable of all jewels for women.”
Sri Sathya Sai Baba
“As blushing will sometimes make a whore pass for a virtuous woman, so modesty may make a fool seem a man of sense.”
Jonathan Swift
“Modesty died when clothes were born.”
Mark Twain
“When virtue and modesty enlighten her charms, the lustre of a beautiful woman is brighter than the stars of heaven, and the influence of her power it is in vain to resist.”
Akhenaton
“Modesty and devotion to God are real jewels for woman kind. The feminine is the foundation on which a peaceful and happy world is to be raised.”
