Such powers as he had he may use, must use.... What he wants to be, he may strive to be. What he wants to get, he may strive to get. Wealth, power, social distinction, fame,--what he wants he can try for.

But all that she may wish to have, all that she may wish to do, must come through a single channel and a single choice. Wealth, power, social distinction, fame,--not only these, but home and happiness, reputation, ease and pleasure, her bread and butter,--all, must come to her through a small gold ring.
