The world fears a new experience more than it fears anything. Because a new experience displaces so many old experiences. . . . The world doesn't fear a new idea. It can pigeon-hole any idea. But it can't pigeon-hole a real new experience.

The real trouble about women is that they must always go on trying to adapt themselves to men's theories of women, as they alwayshave done.
