I think she worked very hard on cool riffs for interviewers, but this one struck me, being as how I spent most of my youth hanging with the boys, as particularly insightful.
‘Generally women are better than men — they have more character. I prefer men for some things, obviously, but women have a greater sense of honour and are more willing to take a chance with their lives.’For the most part, you can't really say this until you are thirty-five or so, because, if you're that beautiful, women are not better. They're jealous. You can't make them stop. You can't make them understand that a real relationship with a man is almost impossible for someone that beautiful.
Same with intelligence.
No. Really.
Some men really mean it, really mean they want their women intelligent. Gorgeous is great, but not bimbos. That's what they really want. So maybe if they're good enough they finally get her, the smart one, and find out that it's like being naked on a plane of light, their illusions are shimmering right there in that plane of light along with their naked bodies. 99% of the time they end up picking someone equally adoring and not quite so bright at the very last minute. It's safer. Which brings me back to my admiration for the last part of this quote. Most men are not willing to take certain chances.
I think this is one of the worst features of this debauched world, where everyone is conditioned away from their innate knowing very early and most of us lose it completely, maybe even irretrievably. This sets up for an eternity of missing the greatness of love altogether.
And that was the point of it, why the conditioning.
It's the most powerful thing in the cosmos. It is the very stuff of the cosmos. You can't control the beings of the cosmos if you can't strip them of it. The ego must be twisted from the git so the love gets cut off.
always and any time....
