Take another example. You often note, when people are discussing as

to what man and woman can do, always the same mistake is made. They

think they show man at his best because he can fight, for instance,

and undergo tremendous physical exertion; and this is pitted against

the physical weakness and the non-combating quality of woman. This is

unjust. Woman is as courageous as man. Each is equally good in his

or her way. What man can bring up a child with such patience,

endurance, and love as the women can? The one has developed the power

of doing; the other, the power of suffering.
