That's for the best. Otherwise they might realize they're in prison. It can't be helped. You women are used to harems and prisons. A person can spend his whole life between four walls. If he doesn't think or feel that he's a prisoner, then he's not a prisoner. But then there are people for whom the whole planet is a prison, who see the infinite expanse of the universe, the millions of stars and galaxies that remain forever inaccessible to them. And that awareness makes them the greatest prisoners of time and space.Vladimir Bartol
About This Quote
A person who is in love feels like he is in prison. But once the person gets out of the prison, he feels like he is free. Women are used to living in harems but when they get married they feel like they are imprisoned again. Marriage is like a prison, they don't feel free.
A person who doesn't think he is in prison can be greatly happy. He feels like he is out of the world and every day he sees the infinite expanse of the universe. What's worse than someone who has everything? Someone who has nothing.
He doesn't have any feelings or emotions or dreams.
