About This Quote

According to William Shakespeare, “As Unto the bow the the cord is ,So unto the man is woman;Though she bends him, she obeys him,Though she draws him , yet she follows:Useless each without the other.” In this quote, Shakespeare demonstrates that it is just as useless to try to live without women as it is to try to live without bows. It is impossible. If you try to live without one you die. If you try to live without the other you go mad.
