It is a wonderful advantage to a man, in every pursuite or avocation, to secure an adviser in a sensible woman. In woman there is at once a subtle delicacy of tact, and a plain soundness of judgement, which are rarely combined to an equal degree in man.

She will seldom counsel you to do a shabby thing: for a woman friend always desires to be proud of you.
