“The nature of the female is that she brings forth from out of her own depths fragments of the unknown which it is the duty of the male to make practical upon the physical plane, because it is he who has the ability to reason out what the female has intuited.

In this way male and female together map out the unknown.”
― Théun Mares, Cry of the Eagle: The Toltec Teachings Volume 2
