"The attributes and qualities of any 'good man' are any or all of those to be found in any 'good woman'.Their hearts beat at the same pace and their blood runs at the same body pressure. Cut both and both bleed and pain in equal measure. And yet, when each of the sexes fall ill, it always takes the man the longest to fully recover. Is this because man's constitution is weaker than that of woman's or simply because males make better nurses and are more natural carers?" William Forde: October21st, 2012.
