The Man and The Woman

Man is the highest of creatures;
The woman is the most sublime ideals.
Man is the brain;
The woman is the heart.
The brain produces light;
The heart, LOVE.
Light fruitful love resurrects.
The man is strong by reason;
The woman is invincible tears.
The reason convinces the tears move.
The man is capable of all heroism;
The woman, of all martyrs.
The ennobling heroism, martyrdom sublime.
The man is a code;
The woman is a gospel.
The code corrects, the gospel perfects.
The man is a temple, the woman is the tabernacle.
Before the temple we discover ourselves;
Kneel before the tabernacle.
The man thinks, the woman dreams.
Thinking is to have the skull, a larva;
Dreaming is having on the forehead, a halo.
The man is an ocean, the woman is a lake.
The ocean has the adorning pearl;
The lake, dazzling poetry.
The man is the eagle flies;
The woman is the nightingale that sings.
Flying is dominating the space;
Sing is to conquer the soul.
Anyway, the man is placed where the land ends;
The woman where heaven begins.
Vitor Hugo
