rather soon with the eradication of the women) and she
saves the sex by telling stories, which means: go with her and you can
never get rid of her. Fundamentally there is a terrible tenacity: No man
could go on living this way for three years facing the possibility of
death - but a woman can - if only she gets permission to tell stories. A
woman does not have the strength for a break or finds it difficult to
make such a decision, but she is able to conquer by means of your not
being able to get rid of her.
- Woman's reflection is almost overpowering to her; this is why it is so
dangerous for a woman to reflect. A woman's reflection usually goes like
this: if she has won on one point or another, she is so overcome herself
that she cannot avoid gazing at her victory - and then she stumbles.
The man is more essentially character; and character consists not so
much in winning as in continuing after having won, keeping in character.
The woman endures something and counts on the approaching moment when
she can take a deep breath. This moment is precisely the danger.
Character is essentially continuity.
- It was Eve who seduced the man - in compensation there is no
undertaking more appealing to a woman than to become loved by someone
who has gone astray and who now, in loving her, will let himself be led
along the right path. This appeals to a woman so much that she is not
infrequently deceived, because such a person puts everything over on her
- and she believes everything - perhaps also because the thought of
being the man's savior is so very satisfying to her.
- For woman the temptation to misuse cunning (for example, to deceive)
corresponds to man's temptation to misuse power. The fact that the
woman's guilt is always more strongly emphasized than the man's is
basically an indirect compliment to the woman, an admission of the
degree to which she is the stronger sex in cunning.
