  • Harsh Truths:  Women would rather share a successful man than be attached to a faithful loser.  Many women do not marry for love.  Most divorces end up with the guy cherishing the woman but the woman detesting the man.  Even for long-term marriage, the Don Juan is the way to go.  The ‘innocent, nice girl’ is often the horniest and likely uninnocent.  Many women consider your looks, your career, what you can offer them, before your integrity and character.  Women are more sexual than men can even dream.  Women are not attracted to genius, only strength and imagination  Woman’s sole mission is union, either for pleasure or the fruits of children. She cares nothing for your philosophy and all except to either use it to catch interest in a guy or to enthrone herself.  Women, in sex, desire to be treated as an object and relish it.  Women place value in societal links; how they are thought of. You become her ego. (Location 785)

  • “Opportunities are brilliantly disguised as impossible situations!” (Location 1196)
  • The high standards you apply to your desires must be applied to yourself. (Location 3504)

    • Note: Given a limited time in life, you can either sit and think. FOREVER. Or, you can take action now.
