Believe Quote by Beyonce Knowles

“I truly believe that women should be financially independent from their men. And let's face it, money gives men the power to run the show. It gives men the power to define value. They define what's sexy. And men define what's feminine. It's ridiculous.” quote by Beyonce Knowles
