Women are another race. They are always changing, like the moon. You can only win by being the cool center of their being. You have to represent something solid and loving. The anchor. Even if you are not. You can't tell them the truth. You have to lie and play games. I’ve never in my entire life been with someone with whom I didn’t have to play a game. I've never been with anyone with whom I could be exactly who I am. . Orson Welles
About This Quote

The beauty of women is the way they constantly change. They are like the moon, appearing at different phases. If you are the one who always changes with them, you will be able to win their heart. You have to be strong enough to be there for them through every phase of their life, but also strong enough to let go, knowing that they will go on without you. You have to be willing to take the time for heart-to-heart talks with them and be patient enough to see where they are going.
