Moralists have heaped so much criticism on women!

"Moralists have heaped so much criticism on women! Among the main

reproaches made is their wish to be beautiful. And yet, it is not

a crime; on the contrary. If women did not seek beauty, they

would have brought generations of terribly ugly children into the

world. It is the mother who passes beauty on to her children; she

is the one who shapes them. This is why, throughout the time she

is carrying them, she must wish for beauty for them. All those

moralists who have condemned a woman’s wish to be beautiful have

not understood that it is the task of a woman, of a mother, to

bring beauty to the earth. Men do not think much about

cultivating beauty – they have other concerns. So if women didn’t

think about it!…

Women are right, therefore, to seek beauty, so that they can

pass it on to their children. They should understand, however,

where and how to look for true beauty, spiritual beauty, so that

one day they may bring heaven down to earth through their

children."
