Quote preview background for Stephen Vizinczey
I wonder, what kind of life would I have had if it hadn__ been for my mother__ tea-and-cookie parties? Perhaps it__ because of them that I__e never thought of women as my enemies, as territories I have to conquer, but always as allies and friends - which I believe is the reason why they were friendly to me in turn. I__e never met those she-devils you hear about: they must be too busy with those men who look upon women as a fortress they have to attack, lay waste and left in ruins.
