Men have a much better time of it than women. For one thing, they marry later for another thing, they die earlier.

For it is mutual trust, even more than mutual interest that holds human associations together. Our friends seldom profit us but they make us feel safe. Marriage is a scheme to accomplish exactly that same end.

Honor is simply the morality of superior men.
