Take my word for it, the silliest woman can manage a clever man But it takes a very clever woman to manage a fool. I never made a mistake in my life At least, never one that I couldn't explain away afterwards
Rudyard Kipling
Body and spirit I surrendered whole To harsh instructors and received a soul... If mortal man could change me through and through From all I was What may the God not do?

Rudyard Kipling
