An unfaithful woman is a woman who has ceased to love.
A light-hearted woman is a woman who already loves another.
A fickle woman is a woman who does not know whether she loves or not, and who does not know what or whom she loves.
An indifferent woman is a woman who loves nothing.
There is a false modesty which is vanity; a false glory which is light-mindedness; a false greatness which is smallness; a false virtue which is hypocrisy; a false wisdom which is prudishness.
Why make men responsible for the fact that women are ignorant? Have any laws or decrees been issued forbidding them to open their eyes, to read, to remember what they have read, and to show that they understood it in their conversations and their works? Have they not themselves decided to know little or nothing, because of their physical weakness, or the sluggishness of their minds; because of the time their beauty requires; because of their light-mindedness which prevents them from studying; because they have only talent and genius for needlework or house-managing; or because they instinctively dislike all that is earnest and demands some effort?
Women go to extremes. They are better or worse than men.
Women go farther than men in love; but men make better friends.
It is because of men that women dislike one another.
It is nothing for a woman to say what she does not mean; it is easier still for a man to say all what he thinks.
