“女人的不幸在于被几乎不可抗拒的诱惑包围着，每一种事物都在诱惑她走容易走的道路，她不是被要求奋发向上，走自己的路，而是听说只要滑下去就可以到达极乐的天堂，当她发觉自己被海市蜃楼愚弄时已经为时已晚，她的力量在失败的冒险中已被耗尽。” ——西蒙娜·德·波伏娃
“The misfortune of a woman is that she is surrounded by almost irresistible temptations, that everything is tempting her to an easy path, that she is not being asked to go up, to her own path, but that she is told that she can only slip down to paradise, that it is too late for her to find herself fooled by the mirage of the sea and that her power has been exhausted in the risk of failure.” — Simone de Povova
