They compliment its weather.

God offers us yearly a necklace of twelve pearls; most men choose the fairest, label it June, and cast the rest away.

That's just the way a lot of people seem to live their lives.

Sonia SotomayorThere's a thing that creeps into this conversation ... that if you complain about the depiction of women [in comics], it becomes, 'Well, but ladies - the dudes are idealized too.' And the thing is that the dudes are idealized for strength and the women are idealized for sexual availability. It's very, very different.

I I'm not going to give up and just smell good.
