"There is not a woman in the world the possession of whom is as precious as that of the truths which she reveals to us by causing us to suffer" - Marcel Proust The possession of whom... Remember, it was a different time and a different world when the quote came into existence. Even then, I believe it was meant figuratively rather than literally. It can easily be interpreted as referring to the possession of her love, which can only be possessed if she freely gives it. That's how I choose to look at it. YMMV.

I like the idea of owning women. All the women I ever owned, always got mad and ran away.

I like the idea of owning women. Owning them can sometimes get rather expensive. That's why some, would rather rent them instead.
With out Jesus Christ there can be no Redemption or Salvation.

Nice one, JP.
But friendship is precious, not only in the shade, but in the sunshine of life, and thanks to a benevolent arrangement the greater part of life is sunshine. - Thomas Jefferson
