The happiest women, like the happiest nations, have no history.
Men and women are but children of a larger growth.
I’m not denyin’ the women are foolish. God Almighty made ’em to match the men.
I should like to know what is the proper function of women, if it is not to make reasons for husbands to stay at home, and still stronger reasons for bachelors to go out.
And, of course men know best about everything, except what women know better.
And when a woman’s will is as strong as the man’s who wants to govern her, half her strength must be concealment.
