«Not even girls want to be girls so long as our feminine archetype lacks force, strength, and power. Not wanting to be girls, they don't want to be tender, submissive, peace-loving as good women are.

The obvious remedy is to create a feminine character with all the strength of Superman plus all the allure of a good and beautiful woman.»

And what can be done with a people who are their own masters if they are not submissive to the Deity?»
Author: Alexis de Tocqueville

«The man of power is ruined by power, the man of money by money, the submissive man by subservience, the pleasure seeker by pleasure.»
