Women - La Rochefoucauld

Women often think they are in love when they are not:
the business of an intrigue, the emotional flutter of gallantry,
natural delight of being loved, and the difficulty of saying no,
all these conspire to persuade them that they are being passionate
when they are merely being flirtous...

La Rochefoucauld (1613-1680) in Maxims
