MICHELET, Jules Quotes
(1798-1874), French historian

It is the general rule, that all superior men inherit the elements of superiority from their mothers.
Improvement depends far less upon length of tasks and hours of application than is supposed. Children can take in but a little each day; they are like vases with a narrow neck; you may pour little or pour much, but much will not enter at a time.
To be a man in a true sense is, in the first place and above all things to have a wife.
Nearly every folly committed by woman is born of the stupidity or evil influence of man.
