“ Among the many ways in which I remain a naively adolescent boy is this: I view women as effortlessly woven into the natural world, while I stand apart from it awkwardly. It can feel to me as though women are birds in flight, while I am like a turtle in a plastic aquarium or a deprecated robot in a midwestern university lab.

Galileo Galilei (via)
