{{Quote|"Inexperienced girls flatter themselves with the idea that it is in their power to make a man happy; later they learn that it means 'to look down on a man if one assumes that it only takes one girl to make him happy.' The vanity of women demands that a man to be more than a happy husband."|''Human, All Too Human''}} | {{Quote|"Inexperienced girls flatter themselves with the idea that it is in their power to make a man happy; later they learn that it means 'to look down on a man if one assumes that it only takes one girl to make him happy.'
