— Bill Vaughan"Since I am a man, my heart is three or four times less sensitive, because I have three or four times as much power of reason and experience of the world -- a thing which you women call hard-heartedness. As a man, I can take refuge in having mistresses. The more of them I have, and the greater the scandal, the more I acquire reputation and brilliance in society."

Progress, in the sense of acquisition, is something; but progress in the sense of being, is a great deal more.
