Women scheme when they are weak, they lie out of fear. Men scheme when they are strong, they lie out of arrogance.

He feared me as many men fear women: because their mistresses (or their wives) understand them. They are scarcely adult, some men: they wish women to understand them, and to that end they tell them all their secrets; and then, when they are properly understood, they hate their women for understanding them.

No one is more arrogant toward women, more aggressive or scornful, than the man who is anxious about his virility

I am death-fearing. I don't think I'm morbid. That seems to me a fear of death that goes beyond the rational. Whereas it seems to me to be entirely rational to fear death!

Men-what arrogance! That was the worst of them. Forget the sexual hold they had on you. They would never liberate women at all.

He has a pure love of the game, no arrogance, and no fear of failure.
