“Men, and pigs, are hard on women who sacrifice their virtue, especially for love." Mattis Tannhouser”
“Men think that self-sacrifice is the most charming of all the cardinal virtues for women, and in order to keep it in healthy working order, they make opportunities for its illustration as often as possible.”
“Men who do not forgive women their little faults will never enjoy their great virtues.”
“Women who love themselves are threatening; but men who love real women, more so.”
“Any religion which sacrifices women to the brutality of men is no religion.”
“Respect for self is the beginning of cultivating virtue in men and women.”
