In revenge and in love, woman is more barbarous than man

Woman understands children better than man does, but man is more childlike than woman

The perfect woman is a higher type of human than the perfect man, and also something much more rare.

When a man is in love he endures more than at other times; he submits to everything

The man loves danger and sport. That is why he loves woman, the most dangerous of all sports.

Man wishes woman to be peaceable, but in fact she is essentially warlike, like the cat.
