Three things have been difficult to tame: the oceans, fools and women. We may soon be able to tame the oceans fools and women will take a little longer.

Summary

This quote, although controversial, makes a sarcastic comment on three challenging aspects of life: the vastness of the oceans, the unpredictability of fools, and the complexity of women. It suggests that while humans may eventually conquer the physical limitations of taming the oceans, understanding and "taming" foolish behavior and the nature of women may prove to be more challenging tasks. The tone implies that taming these two elements may never truly be achievable, highlighting the persistent mysteries and complexities of human nature.
