Summary

This quote suggests that selfishness and complaints can distort one's perception, leading to a negative outlook on life. On the other hand, love and the accompanying joy have the opposite effect, allowing for a clear and sharp vision. In other words, when we focus on our own needs and constantly complain, we become blinded to the beauty and possibilities around us. However, when we embrace love and experience its joy, our perspective becomes clearer, enabling us to see the world and its possibilities in a more positive and optimistic light.

A woman is sometimes fugitive, irrational, indeterminable, illogical and contradictory. A great deal of forbearance ought to be shown her, and a good deal of prudence exercised with regard to her, for she may bring about innumerable evils without knowing it. Capable of all kinds of devotion, and of all kinds of treason, monster incomprehensible, raised to the second power, she is at once the delight and the terror of man.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans.
