In J.R.R. Tolkien's Return of the King, there is a scene where Eowyn kills the witch-king. I don't have the book with me now, but, in the movie, the scene goes like this:
Witch King: You fool. No man can kill me. Die now.
Eowyn: I am no man.
Eowyn is no man because she's a woman. (Duh.)
John Donne writes: "No man is an island".
I therefore conclude that "Woman is an island."
Bow.
