Female Preference

Famous quotes containing the words female and/or preference:

    I am about courting a girl I have had but little acquaintance with. How shall I come to a knowledge of her faults, and whether she has the virtues I imagine she has?
    Answer. Commend her among her female acquaintances.
    Benjamin Franklin (1706–1790)

    When I am convinced of any principle, it is only an idea which strikes more strongly upon me. When I give the preference to one set of arguments above another, I do nothing but decide from my feeling concerning the superiority of their influence.
