For all their restlessness, men are who they are; once they put on the man's toga they will not change again; so they make a virtue of that rigidity and resist whatever might soften it and set them free. ↗

The word love has by no means the same sense for both sexes, and this is one cause of the serious misunderstandings that divide them. ↗
