“No man who is not possessed should trust women, for they are base, fickle, ungrateful and deceitful.
They are ungrateful and do not act as they ought to; they do not care for their parents or brother. They are mean and immoral and do only their own will.
Though a man may be their loving, kind and tender companion for a long time; though he may be dear to them as their own life, yet in time of distress or misfortune they leave him. Therefore I do not confide in women.
The mind of women is like that of a monkey, going from one place to another like the shadow of a tree. The heart of a women is unsteady like the rim of a wheel.
Women are [sticky] like gum, are all-devouring like fire; they are clever deceivers and impetuous like a river. They go both to the man they love and to him they dislike just as a boat goes to both banks of a river.
They do not belong to one man or two: they are laid out like goods in the bazaar. He who should think “they are mine” might just as well try to catch the wind in a net.”
