"Mr. Spock, the women on your planet are logical. That's the only planet in the galaxy that can make that claim."
.....

"Weakness to be wroth with weakness!
Woman's pleasure, woman's pain,
Nature made them blinder notions
Bounded in a shallower brain"...
......
***
Споря с женщиной, мужчина
Блещет силой убеждений,
Ищет доводы, причины
Для логичных построений,
Чтобы их потом унёс
Шквал истерики и слёз!
(Mirza-Shafi)

When arguing with a woman, a man
Demonstrates the brilliance and strength of his convictions,
Seeks the arguments and causes
For building logical syllogisms,
And all so that, afterwards,
A tempest of hysterics and tears could carry it all away!
(Mirza-Shafi)
