Quote by Gina Wohlsdorf

“No woman truly wants independence. She wants the freedom to choose her own master. This is also what men want. The origin of all human conflict is, possibly, disagreement about who ought and ought not to be one's master. The origin of all human happiness is, maybe, mutual agreement on the subject.”

“That's the big picture, your happiness. And health. You should never care what a man thinks of you -- until he demonstrates to you that he cares about making you happy.

At the end of the day, happines, joy...and yes...your emotional stability...those comprise the only measuring stick you really need to have.”
