Arturo Pérez-Reverte Quote

Hay mujeres admirables, acostumbradas a pensar. Damas inteligentes, libres de espíritu, que se sitúan por encima de los prejuicios y combinan el alma fuerte de los hombres con la sensibilidad de su sexo. —Eso es muy cierto. Quizá por eso, las mujeres de talento aman más tiernamente a sus viejos amigos que a sus jóvenes amantes... Ellas pueden engañar a veces al marido o al amante, pero nunca al amigo.
