The common fluency of speech in many men, and most women, is owing to a scarcity of matter, and a scarcity of words; for whosoever is a master of language, and hath a mind full of ideas, will be apt, in speaking, to hesitate upon the choice of both.
I love the idea of there being two sexes, don't you?
I am not for women but against men.
Since women are better at producing babies, presumably Nature has given men some talent to compensate. But for the moment I can't think of it.
The goals we pursue are always veiled. A girl who longs for marriage longs for something she knows nothing about. The boy who hankers after fame has no idea what fame is. The thing that gives our every move its meaning is always totally unknown to us.
True jealously wants not only fidelity, but the proof of fidelity as an imaginable situation. A jealous man is not content with his beloved not being unfaithful. Precisely that which he is not doing does not leave him in peace. But since there is no proving what is not done and the jealous man insists on proof, he ends up settling on proof of unfaithfulness.
For me, there are two kinds of women: goddesses and doormats.
Most men judge your importance in their lives by how much you can hurt them, not by how happy you can make them.
I should think that being my old lady would be all the satisfaction or career any woman needs.
You deserve to be his first place girl, not his "just in case" girl.
