There is one miracle that women can always perform, and always it astonishes the man; it is this: to change from the recipient into the appellant. That is to say,
When woman, usually regarded as the receiver, becomes the giver,—or rather the demander,—man's wonderment surpasses words. And let it be remembered that
There is no re-crossing this Rubicon.

Mistrust a prolonged and obdurate resistance. Either you are out-classed, or you are out-experienced. And, besides,
Surrender after prolonged resistance rarely is brought about by emotion.

A woman never really quite detests daring. This is why
Much is a forgiving a daring man. So, too,
Much is forgiven a pretty woman by the men.
