Men will argue more philosophically about the human heart, but women will read the heart of man better than they do. It is women’s role to form an experimental morality, so to speak, and to reduce the study of man to a system. Women have more wit, men have more genius; women observe, men reason. The two together give us the clearest light and the most perfect knowledge that the human mind is capable of attaining unaided.
