A good woman is the loveliest flower that blooms under heaven; and we look with love and wonder upon its silent grace, its pure fragrance, its delicate bloom of beauty.

An evil person is like a dirty window, they never let the light shine through.

Oh, those women! They nurse and cuddle their presentiments, and make darlings of their ugliest thoughts.

Almost all women have hearts full of pity.

If people only made prudent marriages, what a stop to population there would be!
