No one expects the doormat to stand upright, shake itself off, and amble down the street to seek its own happiness.

Lynn Coady

As women, we need to remember: don't be a doormat!

Don Rickles and I are best friends. I know that might seem strange to those who know Don only by reputation, but somebody has to be his friend. Just to make sure I don't forget, Don gave me a doormat that sits just outside the front door of my house. It reads: 'The Newharts: The Rickleses Best Friends.'

Bob Newhart

I'm a bit of a tomboy, but when it comes to love I am a doormat.

Elisabetta Canalis

Until feminists started wailing about the female's passivity, submissiveness, and something called 'victim status,' I had no idea women were such doormats. My childhood was populated by Eleanor Roosevelt, Amelia Earhart, Pearl Buck, Marie Curie, Clare Boothe Luce, and the Duchess of Windsor.

Florence King

Times have changed. Girls no longer let people treat them like doormats. They take their decisions and stick to them. This makes me happy.

Hema Malini

When I was a kid, I used to deliver the newspaper all over town, cramming papers between screen doors and into mailboxes and under doormats.

Jill Lepore

Women are not a doormat. We are equivalent to men. It is just that we have different bodies and different biological needs.

Kalki Koechlin

God is not a doormat, nor should anyone else be a doormat.

Lewis B. Smedes

I'm not just a doormat. I'm not just being stepped on all over the place. If you look at the bulk of my material, it's about trying to find some strength through that.

Lucinda Williams

No one expects the doormat to stand upright, shake itself off, and amble down the street to seek its own happiness.

Lynn Coady

You can't always be the jokester and the doormat.

Manny Montana

I confess I sometimes sneak a peek at 'The Big Bang Theory.' I chuckle at their antics. But I cringe when they portray physicists as clueless nerds who are doormats when it comes to picking up women.

Michio Kaku

There are only two types of women - goddesses and doormats.

Pablo Picasso

My inbox and doormat are full with emails and letters from people who want me to endorse their Higgs board game or to inaugurate the walkway of their new office atrium. There's even a microbrewery in Barcelona which wants to know what my favourite beer is so they can brew a similar one in my honour. It is quite mad.

Peter Higgs

I myself have never been able to find out precisely what feminism is: I only know that people call me a feminist whenever I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat.

Rebecca West

I only know that people call me a feminist whenever I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat or a prostitute.

We joke a lot about how, in Hollywood, the writer is one step below the doormat. That's not self-loathing. That's true!

Robert Ben Garant

I don't remember threatening anybody, ever. I don't like threats. I don't respond well to them, so I don't give them. But I'm not a doormat. I try to meet the appropriate level of communications.

Roger Ailes

This new movie, 'Full Moon in Blue Water,' I loved the idea of working with Gene Hackman, who is a great actor, but when I read the script, I threw it right into the trash can, because I didn't like this woman. She was just a doormat.
