Henri-Frédéric Amiel on Women’s Role #women #woman #menandwomen

“The feminine sex represents at the same time natural and historical inequality; it maintains the unity of the species and marks off the categories of society, it brings together and divides, it gathers and separates, it makes castes and breaks through them, according as it interprets its twofold role in the one sense or the other. At bottom, woman's mission is essentially conservative, but she is a conservative without discrimination. On the one side, she maintains God's work in man…On the other, she maintains the results of circumstance...She surrounds with the same respectful and tenacious faith the serious and the frivolous, the good and the bad. Well—what then? Isolate—if you can—the fire from its smoke. It is a divine law that you are tracing, and therefore good. The woman preserves; she is tradition as the man is progress. And if there is no family and no humanity without the two sexes, without these two forces there is no history.” - Henri-Frédéric Amiel
