To a great extent the level of any civilization is the level of its womanhood. When a man loves a woman, he has to become worthy of her. The higher her virtue, the more noble her character, the more devoted she is to truth, justice, goodness, the more a man has to aspire to be worthy of her. The history of civilization could actually be written in terms of the level of its women.
Archbishop Fulton Sheen
Very nice quote. And I believe very true. Which is why the onslaught on feminine virtue is so particularly destructive of society.
