Woman Scorned/Quotes

A tigress robb'd of young, a lioness,

Or any interesting beast of prey,

Are similes at hand for the distress

Of ladies who can not have their own way;

But though my turn will not be served with less,

These don't express one half what I should say:

For what is stealing young ones, few or many,

To cutting short their hopes of having any?

—Lord Byron's Don Juan, V.132.1-8

I HATE YOU SO MUCH RIGHT NOW!!

—Kelis, Caught Out There

Baby, I have no story to be told,
But I heard one on you, and it's gonna make your head burn.
Think of me in the depths of your despair,

Making a home down there as mine sure won't be shared.

—Adele, Rolling In The Deep.
