A wise woman once said there are three follies of men. The first is
climbing trees to shake down the fruit, when if they would wait long
enough the fruit would fall of its own weight; the second is going to war
to kill each other, when, if they only waited, they would die naturally,
and the third, that they run after women when, if they would not do so,
women would be sure to run after them.
