When a woman is very, very bad, she is awful, but when a man is correspondingly good, he is weird.
Man forgives woman anything save the wit to outwit him.
A beautiful woman delights the eye; a wise woman, the understanding; a pure one, the soul.
Man proposes, woman forecloses.
Smiles are the soul's kisses.
Some men act upon women like champagne; when they appear the women are sparkling and full of brilliance; when they leave the fair ones grow flat, stale, and most unprofitable companions.
