Women have always been the strong ones of the world. The men are always seeking from women a little pillow to put their heads down on. They are always longing for the mother who held them as infants.

About This Quote

Men have always been the strong ones of the world. The men are always seeking from women a little pillow to put their heads down on. They are always longing for the mother who held them as infants.” -Edna St. Vincent Millay This quote describes how men are attracted to beautiful women, while women are attracted to handsome men. The idea that men are beautiful and women are handsome is supported by the finding that people view attractive people as more intelligent and kinder than unattractive people (Kunda and Thorne, 1992, Thorne and Kannave, 2001).
