No man is offended by another man's admiration of the woman he loves; it is the woman only who can make it a torment.

One man's style must not be the rule of another's.

It is always incomprehensible to a man that a woman should refuse an offer of marriage

Is it right to shoot the poor prostitute or a woman who is unfaithful to her husband, or a man who loves another man?

A man would always wish to give a woman a better home than the one he takes her from; and he who can do it, where there is no doubt of her regard, must, I think, be the happiest of mortals.

General benevolence, but not general friendship, made a man what he ought to be.
