“Men know life too early. Women know life too late. That is the difference between men and women.”

“Women are never disarmed by compliments. Men always are. That is the difference between the sexes.”

“Between men and women there is no friendship possible. There is passion, enmity, worship, love, but no friendship.”

“Always! That is a dreadful word. It makes me shudder when I hear it. Women are so fond of using it. They spoil every romance by trying to make it last forever. It is a meaningless word, too. The only difference between a caprice and a life-long passion is that the caprice lasts a little longer.”

“Women try their luck; men risk theirs.”

“I see when men love women. They give them but a little of their lives. But women when they love give everything.”

“Ah! The strength of women comes from the fact that psychology cannot explain us. Men can be analyzed, women...merely adored.”
