The basic discovery about any people is the discovery of the relationship between its men and its women.

Once the 'what' is decided, the 'how' always follows. We must not make the 'how' an excuse for not facing and accepting the 'what.'

It is easy to overthrow a government but very difficult to build a new one.

The concept of 'Momism' is male nonsense. It is the refuge of a man seeking excuses for his own lack of virility. I have listened to many women in various countries, and I have never found a woman who willingly 'mothers' her husband. The very idea is repulsive to her. She wants to mother the children while they are young, but never their fathers. True, she may be forced into the role of mother by a man's weaknesses and childishness, and then she accepts the role with dignity and patience, or with anger and impatience, but always with a secret, profound sadness unexpressed and inexpressible.

The best government in the world, the best religion, the best traditions of any people, depend upon the good or evil of the men and women who administer them.

Most mothers kiss and scold together.

To know what one can have and to do with it, being prepared for no more, is the basis of equilibrium.
