A Quote by Niccolo Machiavelli
Women are the most charitable creatures, and the most troublesome. He who shuns women passes up the trouble, but also the benefits. He who puts up with them gains the benefits, but also the trouble. As the saying goes, there's no honey without bees.

When women earn the money for the family, everyone in the family benefits.
